I'll take a shot in the dark, here.

I believe that the fuel pump should be constantly powered,and will cycle on
and off if no fuel is required (as at startup).

The problem seems to be that the injectors are locked open.  Check for a bad
signal to the injectors.  I've had this happen myself once, but it seemed to
fix itself - no repeat over another 50K.
