Am I running to rich? I am blowing some fluid out my tail pipes when I rev the motor. Here are a few videos. I know it is hard to tell but whet do you think? It is dark in color and smells a little like fuel. Also when I pull into the garage and close the door, 15 minutes later I get the smell of gas but I have found zero leaks. Any ideas?

Here are the spec’s..

THE CAR HAS OFF ROAD H-PIPE WITH FLOWMASTERS EXHAUST,
K&N AIR FILTERS,
65MM BBK THROTTLE BODY,
CAR HAS NEW MSD PLUG WIRES AND NEW PLUGS,
NEW 255MP FUEL PUMP,
NEW FMU FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR.
BBK HEADERS,
Stock injectors

You probably are seeing the water that condenses in the tailpaipes. This is normal, since one of the products of compustion is water. An off road H pipe will often make the car exhaust stink like gas. To be sure that is it, dump the computer codes. Codes may be present in the computer even if the Check Engine light isn’t on.

Here's the link to dump the computer codes with only a jumper wire or paper clip and the check engine light, or test light or voltmeter. I’ve used it for years, and it works great. You watch the flashing test lamp or Check Engine Light and count the flashes.

IF your car is an 86-88 stang, you'll have to use the test lamp or voltmeter method. There is no functional check engine light on the 86-88's except possibly the Cali Mass Air cars.

89 through 95 cars have a working Check Engine light. Watch it instead of a test lamp.

Codes have different answers if the engine is running from the answers that it has when the engine isn't running. It helps a lot to know if you had the engine running when you ran the test.

Trouble codes are either 2 digit or 3 digit, there are no cars that use both 2 digit codes and 3 digit codes.

For those who are intimidated by all the wires & connections, see http://www.actron.com/product_detail.php?pid=16153 for what a typical hand scanner looks like. Normal retail price is about $30 or so at AutoZone or Wal-Mart.

Or for a nicer scanner see http://www.midwayautosupply.com/pc-7208-90-equus-digital-ford-code-reader-3145.aspx – It has a 3 digit LCD display so that you don’t have to count flashes or beeps.. Cost is $30.
