Default Fuel Injectors flooding engine

I am having trouble with my injectors flooding my engine. It will not stay running. It will only crank for a few seconds then die and the plugs are soaked. I checked for injector pulse and there is not any from what i can tell by using my test light.
If i unplug the fuel pump it will run which i dont understand how that is possible. Does anyone know whats going on or what i can do to diag the problem. I dont get it. Is my ecu lost its tune. If a s300. It sit for about 6 months on a shelve. Can someone give me some help. Thanks

Get a fuel pressure testing gauge. Attach it to your fuel filter, following the service manual procedure. Turn your key to ON(II). What does the pressure gauge read? Turn the key back off. Does it hold that pressure for a minimum of 2 hours?

Ok here is the deal I dont have the stock filter housing and i have a braided line with aftermarket filter on it. It ran perfect before i swapped into my hb using a 1999 ex harness on my b16a2 engine. Before i was using stock b16a2 99 si harness because that was a 1999 si i owned. I am using hondata s300 on my setup also

I really dont understand how the car can stay running if i plug the fuel pump up enough to prime it and then only if i unplug it then it will run at idle for a few minutes without the pump hooked up. How is that even possible
