    Are all of the spark plugs wet, and if so are your removing them to dry them? The fuel system is designed to hold constant pressure in the fuel rail when the engine is off. If your spark plugs are wet you are likely to have a leaking injector. Do you have 6 leaking injectors? I think not. Further inspection and diagnosis is indicated.
