Had Coolant issues worked on last year. Fuel pressure seems fine as it will flood if I switch the key on off 3-4 times before I try to start it... If I do that it will NOT start, otherwise just turning the key it will eventually start after 10 seconds of cranking. Plugs ? Fuel Filter ?

You need to check the actual fuel pressure with a fuel presure gauge and comeback with the readings this is where we start-
