Here's a few things to try.
1. Unplug the AMM. If it is the problem the car will start and probably idle.
2. Make sure the wires to the hall affect sensor are not grounding out on the distributer housing.You can check this be turning the key to the on position and lightly touching or moving the wires going to the distributer.If the problem is here you will hear the pump start when moving the wire or connector.
3. Just a thought. You did check the car has spark, right?
4. Loosen the banjo bolt for the fuel line and make sure it squirts out when you crank the engine. A bad fuel pump can create enough fuel to foul the plugs after attempting to start several times even though it doesn't create enough pressure to start the car.
5. If it has flooded several times you could try pulling the plugs and squirting a little oil in the pistons to seal up the rings.
Just a few ideas.
