Default Please help!!! Engine flooding!!

I'm new to the whole forum thing so if this is the wrong place to put this I'm sorry. I have a 2000 civic si ls-vtec swap. It's a b18b1 with a gsr head and t3/t4 set up. I'm not sure on the ecu everything was done to the car when I got it. Well my problem started when I burned a hole in the number 3 piston. I had a spare b18b1 I swapped a piston out of. I then reinstalled everything. When I went to fire it up it wouldn't run unless you gave it some gas. It was running super rich. If I gave it some gas it would run but sounded like it was cammed. I retimed the motor 4 times and it still does it. The plugs are soaked with fuel. Fuel pressure is around 32 at idle. If you need more info please ask and I'll try to help. I'm lost I am new to boosted vehicles and it is the first Honda I have pulled down so any help is appreciated.

Clean The Spark Plugs and make sure their dry, then when you go to turn on the car, leave it in accessory, hold down the gas for 5 to 10 seconds then turn it on

OK that cleaned it out and aloud it to crank. However when it cranked it flooded again. It only ran for about 2 seconds. And when it was running it was idling rough

Check ur injectors they may be stuck open since the fuel pressure should be around 45 at idle

Can you tell me the best way to do this? And is it possible for all 4 to be stuck open? I checked the pig tails with a noid light and they are pulsing.

Just put a screw driver or something solid to the injector and listen for a pulse or click of the injector opening.. The noid light will only tell u if its getting power

Also figure out the tune ... U may be in some form of limp mode ... Check for codes

Yea if it's has any type of chip in it... It's obd1 since that's the only type of Ecu u can chip for b series ... Use the jump trick on the connector above the Ecu area and start counting flashes ... That's assuming ur check engine light works at all
