Need help quick - Fuel/Spark issue
Finally got the car done today, weee.
Anyway...first time we tried to start it, it started up right away with no leaks..everything was just fine. I had just a base rom written to it so I could tune it from there.
It bogged out since I didn't give it enough gas. After that it wont start again.
The car turns over fine. It gets spark, and it gets fuel.
Ideas? The spark plugs are getting really wet each time we turn it over and try to start. The gap in the plugs are fine also.

Re: Need help quick - Fuel/Spark issue (ladysman)
we took them out, dryed them (with a small torch).
part of the problem was we floaded it a bit too much...for some reason the base map wrote it as 240 injectors the first time so it was getting too much fuel.
Re-wrote it, cleaned plugs again, and drained some of the fuel by pressurizing it and getting rags soaked with gas..fun fun.
Gonna try and start it up again, if it wont...try a new set of plugs.
At least the biatch started fine once with no leakage
