I was wondering does any body think it could be a faulty injector?

If you swapped all those things, and it seems like its misfiring, with the smell of fuel in the tail pipe the only thing I could think of is the dizzy.

Oh i went out just now and swappd the wire's around the firing order is what it was. Guess i have another problem now.. I took radiator cap off and alot of compression coming thru it and smells like gas in the anti-freeze.. New head gasket, Maybe just needs re-torqued down? Idk i didnt re-tq it at 100 miles. I hurd your suppost to. But my car needs new rings, Also blue smoke from the oil, But its starting 2 get water in the oil so im screwd. Know any1 selling a d16a6 block with everything in it? I need something i can slap in without tearing it all down and doing rings and bearings. I know how to just choose not 2 cuz i need something now and that stuff costs money 2 rent a cherry picker and stuff so yea... But thanks soo much for the reply. I just bought a new coil and cap rotor and dizzy is new 2 so i guess im just gonna find a new block..

Double check the sparkplug wires to see if they are in their right places this may cause the motor to run incorrectly. hope this helps
