Default car not starting, tooo much fuel.

hey guys, my d16z6 seems to start but after a few seconds it sputters and then dies. the exhaust spews out white smoke and smells like pure gas. its a stock motor and all i did before i turned the car on was take out the ecu and plug it back in. help!!!!

Try unplugging it again. Why did you unplug it in the first place?

I think if you were getting too much gas, your car would rev up, but maybe not.

smoke comes out white, but when i put a paper towel in the exhaust while it was on, it comes out soaked with gas..... not drenched but moist. ive changed the plugs and wires, the o2 sensor seems ok, but smells like gas. any suggestions anyone?
