Re: 98 Lumina LTZ Idol problem
With the engine idling read fuel pressure at the rail.
Clamp the return line shut. Reading should jump a bit then settle back to norm. If it shoots way up and stays up, new FPR time...
Sure sounds like it's overfueling. Your fuel smell when sitting is from overpressure in the rail leaking through the injectors while they bleed off the excess pressure. Then when you try to start, you've got fuel soaked cylinders.
Crank the motor briefly in the morning without starting, pull a plug out...bet it's soaked.
