My truck keeps flooding out when I try to start it with accelerator to the floor it turns over but floods out again, have changed fuel pressure regulator, map sensor, IACV, plugs and wires. Could it be one of the injector pipetts stuck open if so how could I unstick it w/o replacing the part?

It could b a stuck injector, but I don't think one would cause the engine to die. Have you checked the fuel pump pressure? I realize you replaced the regulator, but there could still be a problem.

It sounds like you have been very thorough. I'm still courious about the fuel pressure. Regardless, if you have good fuel pressure and spark to the plugs, then we need to look elsewhere. With 205K on the engine, have you considered low compression as a problem? Have you checked compression?

Yes I have checked compression with a guage in all cylinders and hooked up a fuel pressure guage at the check valve on the back of the intake and all readings are to standard spec.
