So I checked to see if the plenum gasket was bad in my truck to find out thst it had a puddle of fuel in the bottom of it. Anyone know what might cause it to do this cause its hard to start unless it has been sitting for awhile. My guess is injectors but I just wanted another opinion on it before I order some. Also what is s good place to get some injectors for it.

 

Your problem starts here

Are you 100% sure it's fuel, and not oil pooled in there?

 

My guess would be oil, not fuel. The fuel would have to flow back around those runners to get into the intake. I really don't see that happening.

 

My oil is black that fluid is clear smells like fuel but I didn't pull my tb off I just snapped it open and looked

 

Fuel doesn't get injected until right near the valves. The runners run up around the inside of the keg to the other side where they draw air. If you are getting fuel into the plenum..... I am truly amazed your engine hasn't hydro-locked due to all the gas being dumped.... I bet if you stuck something down there, you would find that it is indeed oil, maybe just seriously contaminated with gas.

If you stomp the pedal to the floor, and hold it there, will it start any easier? What does your oil smell like??

 

Yes and burnt nasty crud and it usually starts fine if it real cool outside but even then ya gotta goose it sometimes to get it going

 

Sounds like a failing coolant temp sensor. Your truck has two, one for the gauge in the dash, and one for the ECM, ECM unit has two wire connector. Make sure it is plugged in good..... If you have access to a scan tool, might wanna check and see what temp the PCM thinks the engine is at cold start.

 

Would you recommend changing it out just to be safe

 

Also I think my intake is leaking oil on the backside of it
