For a flooded engine you hold the accelerator pedal to the floor , this disables the fuel injectors.
You could also have a injector that does not shut off flooding a clyinder. Does it seem to mice at times??
Is the Check engine light on ? If so read the codes and post. Even if the cel is not on get the codes read to see if you have any pending codes.

Quick update and answering questions i can. I will check the pressure regulator tomorrow.
Sometimes it does, it does fine for a bit and then it starts acting like crap. For instance, ill run you down on my days experience with this car. We went to three junkyards finding a part for an Audi. 1st place, we go there fine but when we left i went to start the car and it would not start right away so i pump the pedal and try again, it comes on but its putting so to speak and cant gain any rpms. The gauge was going between half an RPM and almost to one but never quite there. Im pumping the gas and nothing. I hold the accelerator and gradually it gets up to 2 RPMs and i stop. Then we go. This happened everywhere i stopped but just a day ago, i took my dad to an appointment, no problem, started ok coming and going. WTF, my car is bipolar lol Another time it started fine, drove 15 miles to a friends house. We went to run an errand and it refused to start. This happens alot. Also, sometimes ill get it going, shift and then even with the pedal to the floor and RPMS up to 3 it will slowly creep up to 30MPH. Any of this help?
And i went as you told me to check line under the car about 20 mins ago. Nothing looked broken or cracked or generally out of place. There was a line that ran from the tire well to the gas tank, one of these seemed loose going into the gas tank. I pulled on it to see if it would come out and it seemed snug, maybe extra length on the tubing?
The check engine light is on and i gave you the code earlier. P0455 Evaporative Emissions (Gross leak/No flow). If theres a way to cycle through the codes, let me know how. Heres a link to the reader we are using:
