It will start but it will flood itself when it starts. It will run rich when it runs and acts like it wants to burn a lot of fuel.

This will happen when the fuel pressure sensor goes out, here is its location so you can check it out. Also, here is a guide to help run the codes to confirm the fuel pressure sensor failure:
