Default Sticking Injector possibly?

Okay heres my situation. i was driving down 95 south the other day, and all of a sudden, my car just dies. I try starting it while im moving, and nothing happened. So after a tow home, i check the fuse block under the hood, and my ECU fuse was blown. So im thinking okay, maybe just a slight mess up somewhere.

Well my friend had the same problem with his GSR, and it was his Injector. It had seized open. So he told me to pull the dipstick and smell it, and if it smelled like gas, than i was having the same problem. So i ran seafoam through it, but have been to afraid to take the car for a ride, in fear of it breaking down AGAIN.

So after i find out exactly what injector it is, what can be done to fix it? Its a 1998 ITR motor in a 95 civic coupe. any help would be appreciated.

First off did you smell gas on the dip stick? If it is a stuck injector just replace it. You could go to the expence of having all the injectors replace. but that isn't cheep figure on around 120 each
