    Default Hard start

    If you have the throttle wide open and it starts, that generally means it’s flooding. The ECM shuts down the injectors at start up to clear excess fuel while supplying more air. Its part of the programming. I wonder if possibly may have one or more injectors leaking after you shut it off.

    +1 to flooding. That likely means an injector is bad, allowing fuel to drip into the manifold while the engine sits with pressure in the line. Vapor locking is not a problem with fuel injection unless your fuel pump is bad.
