injector question

well I got my distributer back in so i figured i would start a new post for this,

85 302 efi auto 4x4 dual tanks

an apon replacing the dist, i removed the plugs to see if they were fouled or wet from water,,

all the plugs were fouled,, with fuel. and the rearmost drivers side plug was soaked in fuel.

so with all the plugs out ,and the coil disconected, i cranked the truck over to see if there was any water comming out. Well fuel came shloshing out of the rearmost drivers plug hole,

After that i disconected the relay for the pumps, having doing that , i cranked it over again ,, and still fuel came pumping out of that plug hole.

im assuming that i have a bad injector, any ideas??

would excessive fuel in that cylinder, cause the truck to smoke white smoke ??

It sounds as if you have a fuel pressure problem , check it first . Too much fuel will cause black smoke . Is the white smoke constant , are you losing any coolant ?

Hey Dude,If Your Motor Is Full Of Fuel You Have A Bad Fuel Pressure Regulator,VERY BAD!!! It Can Damage Your Motor By Reducing The Lubrication Properties Of Motor Oil.Worse Than That,When This Excess Fuel/oil Mix Fills Your Cylinders You Get Hydraulics,Ya Know;Can't Compress A Liquid.Don't Drive The Truck Untill You Replace It,Or You'll Be Sorry<;
