Super rich conditions. Cranking but not starting.

so do you think it could be just because the car is running rich? it has an upgraded fuel pump but as of right now i am using a stock p28 think that could be it?

so do you think tuning it would solve it or just running a p72? kinda low on cash and cant tune right now i was also told maybe one of my injectors is stuck open or something like that (and that it may just be dumping fuel)

definately rich conditions. I'd be worried about the headgasket too if its throwing gray or white smoke at high rpm.

what do you think could be causing it to do that? think its just tuning needed or something wrong with my fuel system? just trying to figure out some things to look at

well just hooked up a air/fuel gauge and it shows im running rich but just a bar or 2 into it so since its not extremely rich would it be something else?
