I was wondering if you could help me out guys. I got the car to idle properly, but it still is dumping gas in the car. Would you guys suggest bad fuel injectors, or would it maybe be a fuel pressure regulator? I can't get the a code reader to work either, is this OB1 or OB2. Thank you for the help

I think it was a '98-99 GT yes? In either case it'll be OBD-II. Dumping fuel can be leaking injectors and/or too high pressure due to faulty regulator, it can also be a faulty coolant temperature sensor for the ECU or an O2 sensor making the car run rich. The injectors or FPR wouldn't throw a code(could get a cylinder misfire code though technically), and the ECT or O2 can malfunction and not throw a code if they're still in spec even though what's being sent is wrong.
