My '76 930 is pissing gas...help

[backdoc]

Hi fellow Porrrsssh lovers,
I haven't started my ol'930 for a while. When I did, gas started pouring out of the tail pipe. I'm too scared to continue cranking the engine since it may blow up. Has anyone had this happen ?

I have since changed the plugs & let the combustion chambers dry out. Checked that there are sparks at the plugs. Disconnected the gas supply to the CIS, turned the fuel pumps on and gas was coming out of the pipes.
Took out the relays for the fuel pumps and tried to start using starting fluid.
One thing I noticed is that I need to take out the relay for the power window before the fuel pumps will work. If I have the p/window relay installed, the pumps will not buzz (turn on).
I'm going to keep tinkering to find the problem.
If anyone out there has had similar problems and know of a solution, please let me know. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

i think the plunger on the fuel distributer is stuck. dont know where it is on the turbo. happened to me before. dont hydrolock the motor.

Thanks for your reply Vash. The fuel distributor is the same as Mixture control unit ? I tried tapping the mixture control unit with a small hammer to get the plunger unstuck but I'd probably need to take it apart?
What do you mean by hydro lock ?

I am assuming the meaning of "Hydrolocking" is do not pump enough fuel (Liquid) into the cylinders that you are trying to compress fluid and not a gas/air mixture. Common problem for our RV owners doing creek crossings and sucking water into the cylinders causing rods, pistons and pins to exit via the block!

Thanks Nyne11. Wow, you have quite a car collection!
