Hi guys

Just did rings and bearings on my v6 Camry . I reassembled the engine turned the key the thing fired for few seconds then died.. Smelled fuel so I thought I check the spark plugs and found them very wet.Can anyone explain how this is occurring? Would this be due to faulty injectors? How can I fix this.?

Any contribution on this topic will be appreciated.

Thanks

Depending on how long it sat, the injectors could be stuck open. How certain are you that it is definitely fuel on the plugs?

Sat still for 5 weeks, and yes it is fuel. How do I unblock the?........I'm a carburetor man too old to know injections.

The reason I asked is the 3VZ is notorious for spitting head gaskets.

You will need to get them ultrasonically cleaned and flow tested. There is a good chance the fuel has gummed them up from sitting for so long. There are also mobile injector cleaning businesses, depending on where you live.
