I smell gas after my car warms up and then it dont want to start right up like its flooding the tell pipes are turning black like there is to much gas sorry this is a 1986 corvette new engine fuel system and the cannister and vacume tubes have been replaced!! need help

Vapor lock only happens when the vehicle is hot. Flooding at start up, you smell gas. If it is over fueling threw the carb/throttle, then you will see lots of black smoke out of the tail pipe when running.

Keith, PLEASE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TELL US ON WHAT

Can you tell which injector is flooding the cylinder ?

Try putting a fuel pressure gauge on the injector fuel rail. Start the engine then turn it off, the pressure should hold steady not drop to zero. If it drops you have a bad injector leaking fuel into the engine. Also smell the oil to see if it smells like gas.

Hi. This is a common fault with m50/52/52tu engines. Engine is flooded because you did not warm it up. Must be out of blue on temp gauge be for you turn off.

make sure that the 2nd and 3rd plugs are the right ones possably get all new plugs

sounds like its not firing right possible its your coil pack when you smell gas that means its flooded you might as well wait a while when you smell gas like that before you turn it over more but it could also be one more thing it could be you have a gas leak and its not getting enough gas but thats a slim chance

Check fuel pressure, and regulator. A leaking regulator gives a warm engine more fuel [ it does not like it] a cold motor does. same as a flooded motor. Good luck

are you getting a spark on your spark plug????/

I had the same problem. It may start to or already is stalling as you slow down or stop. I changed my fuel pressure switch located right on the fuel rail on top of the motor. It's about $80.
