Default possible fuel problem?

ok, so i just finished up with my h22 swap... started up, and i let it idle for about a good 20 minutes to warm it up and what not. i had a slight hairline leak in my fuel line from filter to regulator, i fixed it a little so i could run it. (slightly seeps out now, but nothing crazy at all.) car runs fine. i took it out to drive it, made it about 20 -25 minutes away and it started to die out on me and when i gave it gas, it had little reaction at all. now the car wont start. just cranks. has spark, and i can hear the fuel pump. after sitting for 10 minutes it decided to try and start up, but stalled out. i looked at the vacuum from my fuel regulator and its wet with fuel. any ideas?

The leaking FPR is adding too much fuel to the intake causing a flooded condition.

ok, i changed the fuel pressure regulator and broken fuel line. car started right up, and idled for a minute, and shut off. now wont start. i have spark. no fuel. i can hear the fuel pump run so thats leaving me to believe ruling out the main fuel relay. ???
