what are some causes of engine flooding. I have a 2005 f-150 and the engine is flooding on cylinders 3, 5, and 7 and cylinder 1 comes and goes. Can anyone give me some insight on my situation.

- Leaking fuel injectors.
- Bad fuel pressure regulator.
- Fuel pressure too high.
- Lack of spark.  
are the first things that come to mind.
