I think I have a leaky injector on my ka24e. when I pull the #1 plug it looks and smells like fuel. Do I have a leaky injector or is it something else?

Easiest way you can check this is to do the following.

Get your car at an idle, and start pulling off your injector clips one by one. Your looking for the injector clip that doesnt affect your idle. If you pull off your number one injector clip and it doesnt change the idle much, that means you for sure have a leaking injector.

or...take off fuel rail with injectors still intact and plugged in, turn on fuel pump(accessory) and watch for any that leak.
