Ok, my car ran fine yesterday with my upgraded fuel pump and 850 secondaries. I pulled the 850's and installed 1300's this morning. Now I have 550's and 1300's but the car will not start anymore (flooded) and fuel is dripping from the dp/mp connection after attemps to start the car. I'm guessing this is not a good thing... The 1300's were new ones from SR motorsports. Is there a fix for this or am I SOL???
I do not smell fuel around the injectors but I think one is just dripping into the LIM. I have new plugs that I will install in the morning and go from there. Is there anything else I can do? The injectors are seated good and no fuel or fuel smell around the inside of the rail.

I am sure. I can see perfectly under the LIM because I blocked everything off and removed the rats nest when I went non-seq. There are no leaks around the rail and no fumes coming up either.
Is there a way to test to see if an injector is stuck open?

there is only one way to check, you have to pull the rail out, leave it connected to the fuel lines, and have someone turn the key on to energize the fuel pump. you watch the injectors, and see if gas pisses out.
I had a leaky injector problem, brand new injectors they were. I did the same test as I told you to do, only diff was, my leak was a small leak that would flood the car overnight. you could'nt see my leak, I had to stuff paper towels under each injector, and check back every hour or so. Sure enough, more time went by, more fule on the paper
