You really need a tune!
What injectors/management are on the car?
If the injectors are larger than stock you should really try to get a base map on the car or adjust for the increased fuel, that will be your starting point.

I would say your probably getting to much fuel so the motor is getting drowned or there is a fuel issue such as leaking try to have someone look at your injectors while you start or prime it. Sometimes those o-rings snap or tear and leak.
You need a basemap for that setup. Not some tune with the same injectors. Every motor is different. You also need a wideband to monitor your AFR at idle. You probably flooded the motor by cranking it over too much.
Well what was it displaying when the car was actually on the day before?
Sounds like the car is not getting fuel if it stalls out after it actually starts up.

You can't "un-flood" it it just gets to much fuel because of the basemap so that would need fixed. For example the other day I finally got my car running ran awesome and the next night when it was like 20-30 degrees colder wouldn't stay running at all. Just check your not leaking anything and does it stay running once it fires up can you keep it going with giving it throttle or does it still die?
