RE: Car sounds like flooding
You likely have a faulty fuel system (fuel filter, pump, or main relay) or ignition system (coil or igniter unit).
When the engine won't start, does the fuel pump fail to activate? You can determine by listening for the low humming sound of the pump for a few seconds after you turn the ignition key to ON but don't crank the engine.
If the pump is fine, then check for spark at the plugs.
