so i went to start my car n there gas pouring out the head or i think thats where it coming from. im mean it not like a lil bit of gas i mean shit load. y is there gas on the exhuast side of the car. im scard to start it agian because it gas and it running down the headers. plz help me i never seen this in my life b4. BTW it a single cam
 
So it's coming down the driver side of the motor? I wouldn't have a clue why fuel should be over on that side of the motor. Although I haven't seen the stock fuel lines on a E motor in quite some time.
I'll dig though some google pics and see if I can't spot something.
 
Ya chances are they are stuck open somehow. Unplug them, take out the spark plugs, disconnect the distributor and crank the motor to get all the fuel out of the motor.
 
all over it. it looks like it flowing from the head or some shit all i kno is when i go look it exhaust mani is WET. more to cly 3 and 4 @ 1st i tought it was oil n my gasket was bad. but i smelled it n is fuel
 
Really guys?? Come on. If the injector is constantly spraying or leaking in to the intake then the fuel is going in to the intake, then the cylinder, then in to the oil or the exhaust stream. If the fuel were able to leak out of the head or exhaust manifold area then the complaint would have been preceded by a complaint of poor performance or exhaust leaks.

It sounds like you've got a leaking injector o-ring causing the fuel volume in the fuel rail to bleed out on to the engine when you first cycle the key on, have the engine running OR until it all leaks out after the engine's been shut off.

You don't need to do anything more than cycle the key in to the on position (Not the crank position) a few times and see where the fuel is leaking from. Maybe a ruptured return or high pressure line, split upper/lower injector o-ring causing the fuel to leak externally BEFORE the combustion chamber or if you've got a fuel filter in the engine bay it will need to be checked as well.

This isn't that difficult, you should be spending more time with a flashlight in your engine bay than on the computer researching it. It should be a no-brainer, just look for the fuel spraying out.

i get wat u saying but fuel ONLY comes out when the car is started. when wle prime the fuel system no fuel leak anywere. just when the motor is being cranked
 
So you disable spark (i.e. unplug distributor connector, DO NOT unplug a plug wire) and hold the key in the crank position and look for the leaks.
 
I don't know about the o-ring deal. They are top feeds on a single cam. Not a side feed like a twin cam. I would think a top-feed injector would have no way to leak down into the cylinder unless it's stuck open.
It can, however, piss fuel all over if the top o-ring has taken a crap.
I would do as 'doug' said. Pull distributor plug and have someone crank while you look for the source. I would pull injector plugs if you think it's pissing into the motor.
And check your oil if it's an internal leak. Might want to change it.

IDK, I hate trying to troubleshoot over the net. But hey, I'm trying.

this may sound dumb but wat u mean the dizzy connector. the wires that go into the dizzy?

fuck im so dumb. sorry it late n im tired. the plug that goes on the dizzy. woooooo. *SLAP SELF*
 
well
time to change oil again
cause that much fuel will kill oil
u have a injector stuc open
when u try to crank it it pores gas in
not pulsing with ecu
try wat axle said
clear out all gas
 
The oil is going to be fine if the gasoline is physically leaking in to the engine bay. Whether it's the head, the fuel rail or side of the block that is getting fuel on it, it doesn't matter, it's not going in to the cylinders.

The only reason I mentioned in to the oil is because when you have excessive fuel in the combustion chamber then it can wash down the cylinders meaning that the piston rings no longer seal properly. This fuel can make it's way in to the engine oil and deteriorate it or even cause fuel trims to change. But none of those conditions match the OP.

The leak is external "So it's coming down the driver side of the motor?" which means a fuel injector on the rail side (since it's a top feed as eazye2000 pointed out, could be leaking, the body of the injector could be leaking (at a seam), the fuel rail fittings/clamps could be loose or there's a hose or filter (if applicable) issue.

Flash light, helper, look, fix, done. This really is going to be a simple find.
 
ight imma read over wat yal saying tomorrow so i kno wat yal really tryna to tell me lol

when i get home from skool tomorrow imma do the cranking with out the spark n watch to see were it coming from. i got a 2nd set of injecters with the rail in my room so i might change the injectors if that the prob
