Replace the main fuel relay under the dash by the steering column

Replace your ECT sensor.
Sometimes they go bad and the ecu (obd1) will not throw a CEL due to it still testing within its voltage range. Obd2 computers will catch this. The sensor will think the motor is still cold and try to inject extra fuel causing the car to flood.
Good way to tell is the next time you try to start your car hot and it want start, pust the gas pedal all the way down and try to start it again. If it starts, replace the ECT sensor.

Yeah my friends B16 is the exact same way. he has 880cc injectors and when its real hot it will not start unless u know how.

Here is a trick put the key in the igniton turn the key fast and pump the throtle open and closed and it should start.

Just do not alow the pump to prime B16 have low intake velocities and i find they flood easy.

Pm me for more tricks
