Hey everyone. I just recently replaced the seals on my fuel injectors and very meticulously soldered in new injector plugs on my 91 z32 n/a so I can try to get the thing to pass emissions here in utah. And have ran into a huge problem with it. It has a huge misfire problem anne runs like garbage. The biggest of my worries is the fuel leaking out of my lower header seals and white smoke from the tail pipe when I shut it off.
I was very thorough with the while process and very meticulous as well. Making sure each connection was done right and then heat shrinked properly and then taped over. The plugs had all become corroded so I tested each fuel injector plug for the proper resistance and then cleaned the corrosion off of the copper to make sure there would be a good connection made. But now I'm beginning to wonder if the dadgum fuel injectors are sticking open and just dumping way too much fuel into the engine. Any help would be very appreciated.

Sounds like the fuel injectors may not have seated properly and you might have pinched an O-ring.

Although I'm not quite too sure what you are trying to say when you mention header seals. Are you refering to the exhaust manfiold gaskets?
