Default Just some help to anyone having too much fuel

So my 68 with the LS1 was running super rich and the injectors were staying open when I went full throttle. I had no idea what was wrong. after searching for hours through corvette forums, i found the answer. The injectors require a dielectic grease on the connections. I simply put the grease on the female end (plugs on the acutal harness). The amount i put was just a "dab" on the end of my finger then put it on each connector. you want to make sure there is enough to coat the male ends. The male ends (which are the ones directly on a injector) are the faulty ones. People with aftermarket injectors should not have this problem, but the stock ones are faulty from GM. using NOID lites wont help, as they read as if they were fine, but in reality they are not. putting this grease/lube corrected the problem. I went to Pigeon Forge, TN taking the back roads, never getting over 60, and made 20.098 miles per gallon in a 68 C10. Coming back the interstate, I made 17 mpg. Just wanted to help
