Ok Though he had it to day and now it appears to be something in exhaust valve or timing. He starts his car and it idles for about ten min w.no prob. Little bits of white smoke, after ten mins or so you can smell gas at the rear pipes and small drops of gas comming out of pipes. He can rev motor and the big plume of white smoke comes out.

The car idles fine the hole time and no check engine lights ever come on. I am not a great mech. just had some old school shade tree mech. instructions. But it appears to me to be a bad seat to exhaust valve or timing issue.

Dose any one elese have a idea for this problem.??

When I pulled the upperintake it looked fine. No signs of water or anything in it.

I forgot to mention- I tried a new injector and it still dumped gas. I flipped the electronics so that the #5 and 6 cylinders were getting gas when the other one was supposed to. This caused it to dump gas into the #5 cylinder. This makes me think that it might be an electric problem, but I am not really sure.

You're still spraying gas, but you took the fuse out for the fuel pump?

My bet is you have a blown headgasket based on what little I've read about your problem online.. What color was the smoke from the pipes? Compression checks are over rated and don't tell you much. A leak down test tells you more of the story.

No, I put the fuse back and started the car up. The smoke is white, and kind of thick when I rev the car.

I understand that it is difficult to diagnose the car without ever seeing it. I appreciate the help and suggestions that everybody has given.
