Default Running TOO rich

My cars running too rich. So rich to the point that I try and start it up and it smells like gas. I then remove the fuse from the fuel pump and it starts for maybe 2 seconds then dies. I want all the troubleshoots on what would make the car run severely rich like this. Thanks
