Try the starting fluid. You could have dirty injectors that caused it to run and then die.

Yes it ran normal. The first time I hit the throttle it was fine, it was the second time I hit it that it stalled.
Can you hear the f/p prime when you hit the key? Any chance you have axcess to a f/p gauge?

I can hear the fp kick on. There is fuel in the cylinders. I removed the spark plug and could see fuel. I do not have access to a fuel pressure gauge.

Have you looked at any of the plugs to see if they are wet from gas?

The injectors are fairly new. I've had them on the car for about a year and only have maybe 200 miles on them.

Try to be more clear on the odd cranking problem. Try to describe it a little better.

If you see fuel in the cylinder, you have flooded it. Pull the plug and smell it and see if it has fuel on it.
