Too much fuel

[jigz]

Hi folks,

My VX has way too much fuel being injected, as in, there is a spray of unburnt fuel flying out of the exhaust.
I have looked on here and am aware of the usual culprits (MAF, IAC, IAT, PCV, o2 sensors, DFI, coils).
I have so far replaced the IAC valve (looked gummed up and old and it was the cheapest) - no success.

This happens straight away, as soon as the engine starts.
I am wondering whether this last piece of information may help somebody on here identify what the issue might be.

Thank you

Are you sure that it is fuel from the exhaust and not water, which is normal

Would be water on start up, if there is a heap of it, then LIM gaskets are possibly shot

Pretty sure its fuel. Exhaust reeks of it, and I've put my hand over the exhaust and smelt the drops and its fuel. There's fuel on the driveway under the exhaust pipe. Car also stalls after revving for a while - I suspect its flooded.

Just replaced the LIM gaskets, it's not water.
