help! :(

Okay so did a head gasket on my 92 corolla...torqued everything to spec. timing is correct (triple checked) quadroople checked the wiring..

Its dumping gas into 2 of the cylinders and running really rich in the other two, have to give it throttle just to keep it running. the regulator line (not the vacuum line but the other one that carries fuel) popped off and had to reattach it multiple times.

Then as it warmed up a little began getting fuel smelling/acrid white smoke out the tail pipe

first question...(semi new to fuel injection) any ideas as to why its running so rich...

second...i know white smoke is usually a coolant burning problem however i have also heard/read that when runnign real rich is can come out white (idk if this is a myth or not) So could my excessive fuel be related to the white smoke or did t he gasket blow again...

Quote:
"There are two lesser known causes for thick white smoke. One would be a severely leaking fuel injector (raw gasoline may be seen dripping from the tail pipe) and the engine will generally run rough"

Thanks guys...
