Fuel Injectors

Hello,
After talking to a few DeLorean owners and 1 mechanic I think I have
found the problem with my rough idle and acceleration. It seems to have a
little trouble starting. it will sputter and then stall. Then the next time
you turn the key it comes to life instantly. It will not accelerate very
well at all. once you get to second geer it does better but still not
anything like it should. the engine has little tiny backfires when you give
it gas.
I think I may have a clogged injector. My car sat for about 11-12
months. Before starting it I drained the gas and did a quick fuel system
flush and I really dont even think it needed it. the gas was fine. I am
starting to think something may have got to one of the injectors somehow.
does this sound like it could be and injector? I tested the cold start valve
and it is working.
when it starts it spits out a little mist of gas or water from the
tailpipe. I dont think it is from water evaporation because it does it on
hot days too. I think I will go ahead and replace the injector after I find
out which one it is, or should I replace them all?. while I am doing this I
will replace the water hoses and dist cover etc. please let me know what you
all think. my car has 28k miles if u wanted to know.
Thank you
David
