ok so i was putting in my NEW (new pistons rings, machined head etc.) KA24DE bc the shell i had had a flodded engine (gasoline). long story short: i used the same manifold fuel rail injectors etc of the old engine and when i went to crank nothing. again long story short: cylinder 2 injector was letting ALL the fuel go through it therefore flodding the new enige. When i drained it first came the oil then the gas(exaclty the same as when i drained the 1st KA)

MY QUESTION is: is the new engine (never started) ruined?

wat i did was fill it again with oil cranked it (w/o distributor injector and sparks connected) then drained it and i will let it sit on the lift over the weekend.

i would be worried about washing out the rings, but then again i've only had this happen once
