91 metro 3cyl floods

Hi all - great site.

My 91 3yl metro (Pontiac Firefly here in Canada) floods instantly when I try to start it. I have just had the injector tested/cleaned with no effect. I belive it's flooding because the throttle body is full of gas when I look in it and if I disconect the electrical connector to the injector and then turn the key and hold the gas peddal down it tries to start (until the fuel is burned off). Then if I reconnect it it fires fine the first second of cranking then dies and the throttle body is again filled with fuel. It's as if the ecm thinks that no throttle is full throttle or something. I'm going to the scrap yard tomorrow to see if I can get a new ecm. Anyone have any ideas?

TIA
