How do you fix a fuel injected car that has gas flooded spark plugs and wont turn on?

I have a 97 Nissan Altima GXE. It idled pretty rough for about two months until one day it turned off on me and didn't want to turn on no more. I changed the fuel filter, Fuel pressure regulator, and checked the gas pump and it pumps fine. I took the spark plugs out and they were soaked in gasoline. when i crank the engine to try and turn it on it just smells like gas. What could be the problem and solution?How do you fix a fuel injected car that has gas flooded spark plugs and wont turn on?Nissan has always had a problem with their cars flooding. I don't know why but usually just changing the plugs helps. Tsb advises customers to start car with accelerator held halfway down. They also have a redesigned starter that makes the engine turn faster when cranking. If you continue to have the problem it maybe from a different source like an injector leaking or fuel pressure may be too high. pull the vacuum line off of regulator and make sure that is not leaking also.How do you fix a fuel injected car that has gas flooded spark plugs and wont turn on?what plugs do u use ive used new plugs did same thing so i bought cheap ones like champions they burn hot try that
