93 conv wouldn't start, no problems before. Plugs were wet with fuel, chnged them and was able to start. car acted like it was getting too much fuel. Took it to a pretty good mechanic but he could not get it started, drove it approx 60 miles to his location. He said that there was gas in the oil and suggested having it towed, and not to attempt to start. Towed it home and noticed gas leakage. car is not showing any codes. any input would be greatly appreciated.

that is the exact same thing that happened to my car. I sent it to mechanics, researched, and took it apart, but still dont know the cause. I got so disgusted with it that i decided to just go nuts wit the thing. RB25DET in the works this spring. Hopefully a neo but will settle for r33 rb25det.

trahc, appreciate response. could you give me some advice about the temp sensor, (location, description, how to check), same with pressure reg. it seems you have a logical explanation.
