Fuel Injected flooding problem
Check for restriction in the fuel return line. When you shut the engine down, if the fuel pressure is to high, the engine will flood when you try to restart to soon. When you let it set for a while, the fuel slowly works it's way back to the tank, bringing the pressure back to normal. It's the easiest and cheapest place to start looking for your trouble. Also, sometimes the coolant temperature sensor signals the computer that your in cold start mode, even if your temp guage reads normal (3.8L tuarus motors were known for that little problem).
