Noticed fuel smell, #1 injector leaking. Replaced injector all was well for a week. Noticed smell again #2 was leaking not surprised had a notion that it may have been in trouble. Replaced #2 started car. It was running rough and notice gas smell. Upon checking fuel was on the ground and noticed fuel running down exhaust pipe. Upon further inspection saw gas blowing out of where the exhaust pipe connect to the exhaust manifold and fuel was being pushed out the muffler. Pulled #2 spark plug and it was totally black. What is going on.
