Wet rear plugs smell like gas

Well I have been having some missing problems with my Rx and the other day I took the plugs out to check it out. When I took them out the fronts plugs looked fine, but the backs where wet. They both smelled like gas and they where dry in like 20 seconds. I think it's the injectors because this would explain why sometimes my car floods when it has been sitting for a couple days. Just want a second opinion before I rip into this thing. Thanks.

definitely sound like injectors leaking. Rip them out and have them rebuild/clean/flow test by witchhunter.com

Good luck!
