Ok,so I figured i'd post this to get a response of opinions for my car...So I replaced the intake gasket and broke a few pintle caps on my fuel injectors when I had them off,so I ordered a pintle cap kit and installed them on the injectors..now when I got it all back together the car was missing,but no smoke,so I ran it to get all the air pockets out of the cooling system..drove it around the block no more than 25min of driving/running the engine and no smoke the whole time,but it was missing at idle the whole time,but today I had a brainstorm of ideas that could be causing it to missfire and once I got to the end of my street nothing but a cloud of white smoke was coming out of the exhaust,so I turned it around and drove back into my driveway to see gas dripping out of my exhaust..Leaky injector..looked at all the spark plugs and the 3rd one was covered in fuel,so I disconnected the fuel pump and turned it over a few times hoping to clear the fuel out of the cylinder,but Ive ordered a new set of injectors to clear up this issue,so my question is do you think my engine will be ok and what steps do I need to take to make everything ok before I install my injectors?..its not hydrolocked,but I think im smelling gas in the oil(not too sure though)but as I said it will start right up if I fire it up,but im not going to until its all squared away now...if I change the oil and install the new injectors do you guys think it will be ok?..and what can I do to it now before my injectors get here in the mail?..plus what is the best way to install injectors on this car..ive read about several different ways,but what is 100% fool proof way about it..sorry for such a long post,but this is my 1st 240
