Car: 93 300zx 2+2 with twin swap

Post

My car is a 93 2+2 with a TT swap. I have been having this problem. When I start the car when it I cold it runs perfect. When I drive it around for a little and shut it off then go to start it again. It seems to misfire for 20 seconds or so. You can smell raw fuel coming out of the exhaust. I have been told many different problems could cause this. One is a faulty PTU or a crank angle sensor, cam sensor and even a sticking turbo. Please help me out with this problem. I did the swap on my own and know a good deal about these cars. It just seems to be one problem after another. Please help me with this problem. Other than initial start up it runs perfect. Thanks

Have you smelled around the injectors after shutting it off? It almost seems like a bad injector leaking fuel into the intake after you shut the car off. Have you check the residual pressure in the fuel line after it is off for a bit?

I just put all new injectors in not to long ago. I it was fine for a little while then it started doing this. I will check the pressure after a warm shut down and see. But I'm thinking it's an ignition problem.
