Start Up Problems

I have a 1995 F-150 with 5.0 (302) AODE 2WD. It has the exact same problem that you are describing. I think it is a fuel related problem. I was looking under my truck the other day and saw that the return fuel line that runs down the passenger side has a dent or crimp in it. I don't think that is supposed to be there. I would think that it would cause the truck to flood because the excess fuel going back to the tanks can't flow fast enough. This is just my opinion though. Any other ideas or advice would be greatly appreciated. I have replaced about 600$ worth of parts trying to fix it over the last two years. I took it to several shops including two Ford dealers and no one could fix it. I guess I'll have to do it myself then.
