Fuel smell tends to point toward no spark. It could be the plug, the coil, the wiring or even the computer. You learned how to look for which cylinder is missing by unplugging the injector with the engine running. Now you can move the coil and plugs to different cylinders and see if the miss follows either of them.

ok just changed plug and coil pack it is alot smoother but still misfireing. The plugs gap was .090 which was way to much. Coil pack smelt like burning wires. What would be my next step?
