Asked by Alex May 13, 2016 at 05:23 PM about the 1996 Chevrolet C/K 1500 Silverado Extended Cab 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 1996 k1500 when I crank it white smoke
comes out of the tailpipe and smells of gas. I was
told it was the spider injectors that one of them
was stuck open so I replaced them. Upon replacing
the spider injector I pulled the spark plugs to see if
they were getting any fire and gas sprayed out of
the number two cylinder any suggestions to what's
going on here I'm at a loss. Thanks in advance.
