So I get my car from the exhaust shop.. all new 3" turbo back piping and it's beautiful. Go to start the car and it takes a while to turn over. Gotta pump the gas pedal to get her started. She starts and then idles for a bit. I go to back her out of their garage and she stalls. Go to start her again and it takes even longer to turn, and she won't cooperate. Once she's pushed outside, start her up again, she starts.. stumbles and dies. Start and try to drive her forward.. she goes a few feet and stalls. Pop the hood and explore.. leaky valve cover gasket is spilling oil.
so I get her home on a tow truck and start looking around. Leaking head gasket.
today I started ripping off the valve cover and intake mani when I discovered that 3 and 4 had puddles of fuel on top of the valves while 1 and 2 were dry. Is this an injector problem? Why would I flood only 2 cylinders? Do I have the fuel feed and return lines reversed? Is my FPR getting a bad vacuum or something? I have it T'd for my boost gauge.
