Default need help with my 89 chrysler 360 t/b engine

I replaced the computer and that was not it.When you turn the key,the throttle body sprays fuel out of the right side injector and no fuel sprays out of the left injector and continues to do so as you crank the engine.That is normal for it being a cold start.Once it starts,it switches,The left injector sprays normal and the right injector just drips.I don"t know what else to do.People told me it could be the crank sensor.I thought it would not run if it was the crank sensor.Please help me.I am at my end.This is for a 1990 Dodge Sterling Motor home. It has a 1989 chrysler V8 360 Throttle body engine in it.Thanks to you all who read this.

The computer technical section is for PC Computer help, not engine computers. Moving this to the closest section we have for you.

Hello,
First off are you certain of the year of the engine since they did not have fuel injection on the 360's until 1989...not that that is a big issue but..

First you should check for codes

I doubt it is the pick-up in the distributor since if it was bad it doesn't control 1 injector or the other...

What issues are you having...does it run rough, stalling, what?

Ok, well I would still start by checking the codes and the fuel pressure while running at the throttle body.
