I have gas.....

.....in my #3 cylinder.

The cars been dying occasionally at a stop.I did a tune up and the #3 plug was fouled,wet,and smelled like gas.The wire was shot too.I ran some STP through it in case it was a dirty injector and replaced the plugs and wires with new ones.The car still dies at lights (sometimes) so on a hunch I checked #3...it was again fouled,wet, and smelled like gas.

I cant figure it out.Im not going to worry if its a "big job" cuz a 383 is going in between now and July or so.But if its a stupid little thing I'll fix it so I dont die at a light!

BTW,the only code I show is the infamous 32 (but the EGR was replaced in Oct 2003)..
