Default just installed vafc2 and car runs funny

I just installed my vafc2 a little while ago and when I went to start it, it didn't want to start. I have never had a problem with my car starting ever. so I unplugged the battery hoping to see if it cleared it. It did not. Every morning I go out to start my car and it won't. I have to sit and crank it for a while. When it finally does start it smells really rich. and also it drowns itself out if I try to touch the gas. so after about 2 mins of running its back to normal does any body know what this is or what it could be

what are you settings? If it smells rich, then lean it out
