TBI sprays too much gas

Instead of a cone of mist, I get niagra falls spraying into my engine. Usually accompanied by a loud hissing sound which usually ends with a flooded engine. How can I tell if it is a problem in one of the sensors, or what not. I have a 350 vortec engine(1998 suburban) inside of an Iroc with a holley TBI 2 barrel. Some say its the throttle position sensor, some say the idle air, and some say the computer. I dont know man.

Check the o-rings around the injector, look for cracks or anthing out of place, I had come across that before, had myself baffled for quite some time on it.

Disconnect the wires leading to the injector, then crank the engine, see if the fuel is still dumping, please get beck to me.
