I fixed the power steering/water pump belt on my KA and now it won't run right. It started fine the other day. The only thing I have physically changed since then is take out and change the lower o-rings on #1 and #2 injectors (been having a flooding problem, lower o-rings constantly being disintegrated on a few injectors) and changed the belt.

At first the engine would not start at all, just would turn over. I checked to see if it had spark and it did, don't know if it is weak or not. At that point I was still having flooding issues too, to get the fuel out I would take out the plugs and let it turn over freely and shoot the fuel out the spark plug hole. Also when I turn the ignition from on to off my EGI relay will buzz until I disconnect power, it just developed that about a week ago when the engine was still running...still does it. The car has not physically moved in a month or so.

I bought new spark plugs since the others probably fouled from the fuel flooding. Put the new ones in and the engine will start now, but it runs extremely rough, will not run without throttle, and white/yellow smoke comes out the exhaust (short pipe off of header). Sounds like it is not running on all cylinders or is out of time. I have a video that shows what I just described

Please help, what could be happening? Here is the video
