I highly doubt gasoline is pouring out of the tailpipe, unless you hooked up a fuel line to the exhaust

What color is the "liquid"?

Bump after 6 minutes huh

White smoke?

My first guess is blown head gasket again. Or just not put on right.

you do realize that any liquid that passed through your exhaust system is going to smell like fuel due to the residue thats spans the length of your exhaust system?

x2

if youre running that rich, you'd be getting some serious black smoke. chances are youre just blowing out the rest of that coolant in your exhaust system. I wouldn't worry about another blown head gasket unless youre having performance issues or misfiring/rough idle. if it concerns you enough, do a compression test on it... but from what you described, i think youre fine buddy.

ok i figured out that the liquid is gas
# 4 injector is like stuck open and it sprays the whole time it doesnt pulse
and i havent ran it since the head gasket install
i started to do a comp test only on 4 and 3 cylinder so far and then a **** load of fuel came out the # 4 cylinder spark plug hole
at that time it was a lil above 180 on 3 and 4
