Is there any bad effect to the fuel system??

I'm very curious here. Since i had the hard start problem (before the car stalls), while cranking the engine i step the acc pedal about 25% (not flooring it). I did start the car but it will cause the fuel injector to malfunction, am i right?? All i know when you fully floor the acc pedal, this will cut the fuel (a step of deflooding process).

Gimme some light please

leave your foot completly off the pedal when starting UNLESS you are trying to de-flood- then holding the pedal all the way down will shut off the injectors so that the engine can crank all the fuel out.

Thank you bro. What if i'm playing the pedal back and forth continously while cranking the engine?

Are these "rotor housing" fuel injectors fouled/malfunction?? I don't see both injectors clogged.
