Running "Rich"

Lately my 1988 f150 with the efi 302 has been stuttering when i give it gas and stalling out. im assuming its running rich because i can smell raw fuel afterwards. the only thing i have done to the truck is put a true duel exhaust on it. any help is much appreciated

X2. You can do the "Paperclip method", or go w/ a Code reader w/ digital numeric display & memory for less than $30 (post your codes here for help w/ them): Equus Innova 3145 OBD-I Ford Scan Tool

Also check your fuel pressure regulator: Fuel Injection Technical Library » Fuel Pressure Regulator (FPR)
