84 GSL-SE idle issues with smoke
When I start the car, it smokes like a chimney, and will usually stall out as well, unless I floor it upon starting. If I floor it, the smoke gets even worse though. I almost covered my apartment complex in smoke this morning.
Also, even after the car has been running, if I run the A/C, it'll stall out too.
I've read through the "SOLVING GSL-SE IDLE PROBLEMS" website, and followed the steps to check the BAC valve along with the Air Supply Valve, and I just changed the gasket on the BAC valve connection to the engine itself, because it was all kinds of jacked up.
Any ideas on what else it could be? I think it's got poor fuel injectors, but I've read somewhere it could be the oil gasket? I don't remember, and I can't find that thread again....
Please?

Also, I brought the car with me to get some fuel injectors to send of to RC engineering to get re-manufactured from the guy who sold me the car said it's probably excess gas leaking from the fuel injectors that are in the car now. I've had some problems with flooding, and needing to do the fusible link trick with the green fuse to get it to start on occasion, so could it be excess gas from the fuel injectors leaking?

If it smells sweet, then you are dealing with a coolant leak. Read this:
