Sounds like a cold start injector issue. It would seem that the CSI is staying on for an inordinately long time. Could be a problem with the the cold start injector, cold start switch or the water temp sensor.

Ok undo the 2 bolts that hold the cold start injector in and block the hole in the manifold with something the engine cant suck in,
point the cold start injector into a jar and get someone to start the car, it should spray(not dribble) until the engine warms up (coolent reachs 30c),
If it dribbles check fuel pressure,filter and if there ok the ingector is cactus
if it doesnt switch off once warmed up the time switch is stuffed, if thats the case let me know and ill post ya one
The cold start injector time switch is the one under the upper radiator hose (brown one) faces the radiator
