the car will NOT start.
tach is moving when I crank the engine... I jumped the fuel pump relay, I am getting power to the coil.
I crank for maybe 8 seconds and then it wont crank anymore. I pull the plugs and ALL of them are soaked with gas (number 3 was almost FULL).
I've cleared out the cylinders and put the plugs back in and it just keeps filling the cylinders with fuel.
Does ANYONE have ANY clue what the hell is giong on. It seems like the injectors are stuck WIDE OPEN.
Thanks to anyone that can help.

umm. injectors are wide open on start, on fuel injected cars.. as far as i know anyway. The starting sequence is spark and wide open injectors, and after 2 seconds or so, the ECU cuts in and takes control. Hence the reason when you turn on a fuel injected car, there is that high rpm start that calms after a second or two.

like I said, fuel is coming out the top of the FPR - so I assume that its bad.
Hopefully this was the problem - thanks guys!
