That is flooding, (lots of causes that)
that throttle hold down is in the operators guide, called WOT unflood mode. it cut fuel 100% it starts via, excess fuel, in engine.
clears then starts and runs.
ever do a full tuneup?
Flooding. (engine good)
bad spark. Cold starts need perfect spark , unlike a hot engine.
so tune up time, for most cars 60,000 miles, some need sparks
every 39k (RTM read the manual in glove box,) it tells you.
as does the FSM state this, and how.
If flooding is not tune up related, then it is>
1: leaking injectors.
2: too high fuel pressure.
3: bad inputs to the PCM (like ECT reads too low temp) scan IT.
4: ISC stuck closed ,staring, the engine of air as start.
to test this #4 theory, (told in newer car operators guides) is to
start car with 10% throttle , start now? that may prove ISC stuck closed.
ever examine spark plugs, they speak volumn's.
these are new plugs, and are soaking in raw fuel.
on old plugs. its hopeless. (even weaker spark)
we use tools to find cause, got tools?
typo 39=30k

ngine stalling issue at low speeds
This problem
is commonly caused by a dirty automatic idle speed control valve and
throttle valve. Buy a can of throttle valve cleaner from NAPA or
Carquest (made by CRC chemicals) and spray it into the air intake
while the engine is running, use up about 1/2 the can, engine will
try to stall hold the speed up, shut it down and let it soak for 30
minutes, restart and blow out the remaining fluid, shut it down and
disconnect the negative battery cable for 5 Min's to reset the base
idle control
