Why would you pull the injector fuse?
Just press the gas pedal all the way to the floor (like it says in both the owners manual and shop manual, if you bother to read them).
This cuts out the fuel delivery during cranking and introduces a lot of dry air into the engine.
You can clear a flooded motor in just a few cranks that way.

mazdamaniac : yes i do bother to read the online manuals and i'm aware of the pedal to the floor thing to not send any more fuel to the engine but this is not working for me :< , it dosen't mather how long i crank the starter with the the pedal floored.. the plugs are still all wet and the only thing i can do to get the car started then is to pull the fuse, crank it 10secs and then it will start ..

I had a similar prob, with the engine not starting and losing power. I was told by mech to replace the crank angle and entire distributor and now it's working fine. Not claiming to know how this helped, but perhaps it will give some ideas to those who do know. (Also, would appreciate your responses, if this was the right thing to do or did I get ripped off)
