ok i recently replaced one of the fuel injector and my 240sx 1991 was running fine for a day. i took the car out and drove it for like 30 mins total and parked it at a local coffee shop. after when iw as about to leave my car had a problem starting. the motor finally kicked but it was shaking madly like one of the spark plug was dead. in the middle of driving it the motor just died on me and wouldn't start any more. the engine turns and is smothered with the fuel smell. can anyone help me ?

You might have been running on 3 injectors, or the injector you put in is defective.

check all plugs, and injectors

check for corrosion on the injector wires, but it really sounds like a crummy injector.

Sounds like the injector is stuck open... kinda odd that your engine died though.
