Sounds like the tuner messed the tune up big time, take it somewhere else. Pumping the gas pedal wont flood it its not carbuerated, all the gas pedal does is pull a cable which operated the throttle body

ok well lets think it out!! 1st sign its the tune is the tuner said that he couldnt get it tuned yet didnt give you a mechanical reason why or tell you to change something so it is tuneable

2nd your car sputters underthrottle that either means your car is drowning in fuel starving for air or starving for fuel...how does this happen it happens from imrpoper tuning of your fuel pump, bap, maf, etc etc

3rd you had trouble starting which can also go back to fuel and air and not gettin proper amount to even start the car let alone driving!

lastly if i was in your shoes i would pull my plugs see how the look and I WOULD NOT BE DRIVING THE CAR except to a diff tuner to get it fixed the right way
