Okay...the plot thickens...

I pulled one sparkplug to test the compression, but when I turned the engine over it locked again...so, I pulled all the spark-plugs and turned it over again. This time the second cylinder on the 2nd (passenger side) bank spewed fuel all over the place! After cleaning that mess up, I tried it again with a clean rag over the spark-plug hole and checked the rag (after it blew against the wall). It's pure fuel, but a lot of it. BTW: There does not appear to be any cross contamination between antifreeze and oil.

So...is this a fuel injector problem...fuel rail...throttle-body?
