mHmmmmm; Maybe O2 senors are a problem on this vehicle, but not necessary for starting any EFI vehicle. therefore, I might suggest checking either the fuel supply or the spark supply, and as you say "flooded" then I'd suggest the sparks supply.
Or the electronic parts of the sparks. Electronics are known to fail when heated.
