Fuel injector issue

Hey guys I'm having a issue with my 88 firebird not sure of exact model just know its a v8 never really had to deal with USD vehicles before but either way I'm trying to get it running right again it sat for about 8 years the guy I got it off of replaced the fuel pump cap and rotor and a few other minor things and then it sat for another year but I noticed that my fuel injectors don't pulse it just has a constant stream of fuel and its soaking my plugs and I'm hoping it's what's Making the motor run like crap (besides the minor vaccume leak) but I was wondering if something like that would be on the injector side or the computer if yall know any way to test it some info would be great also there are no codes on it

Re: Fuel injector issue

Odds are it's the injectors. You can put "noid" lights on to check the electric side.
