I’m having a problem that I need some help with. My car was parked for 5 days in a garage over the holiday. Last night as soon as I cranked the car, the engine started shaking and I started smelling gas and I quickly turned it off. A friend suggested checking the spark plugs, so I took them out and they were soaked with gasoline. Has this ever happen to anybody? How can I fix this problem?

Thanks

 

looks like leaky injectors......try some fuel injector cleaner

 

Ok, is there any special brand of injector cleaner that you recommend?

 

Also check the vacuum line on the fuel-pressure regulator. Should only be air in that line. If the FPR diaphragm ruptures, fuel flows thru that line into the intake manifold & can cause what you saw.

 

I've seen injectors on those models that leak into the cylinders but not all of them at the same time.
Consider this, when the car sat for a long time fuel pressure bled off, you jumped in and turned the key to start it up....there wasn't enough fuel pressure for the injectors to spray out a fine mist; instead they kind of drizzled out the gas, causing a 'flooded' condition. I always recommend that people turn on the key and then fasten the seat belt before cranking the engine, that allows time for the fuel pump to build proper pressure.
