you have nipped / misfitted the oring(s) for the injectors.. the fuel is leaking into the bores..

You need to remove the plugs (get coil packs disconnected) and spin it over to etablish, with injector plugs off, which injector(s) is leaking and replace the oring on them...

Are they phase 2 440s with adaptors or phase 1 440s?

Once you have sorted the leak and assuming you haven't bent a rod, you need to change the oil as the petrol will have leaked into the oil and diluted it.

All that aside.. the Mines ecu is very agreesive map and I would recommend removing the chip.. also why are you fitting the 440s and all these mods and running a 380cc injector map etc..

OK WILL TRY THE INJECTORS FOR A LEAK.
THEY ARE PHASE 2 INJECTORS WITH ADAPTERS.
WOULD IT REALLY BEND A ROD??????
THANKS FOR THE ADVICE.

Also a quick way to check the injectors are leaking is monitoring the fuel pressure gauge whilst turning the ignition on and off a few times (NOT turning starter motor) It should hold pressure. If it bleeds away over a short time then its the injectors. LIKE JGM says, if so then turn the engine with the plugs out to get rid of the fuel - otherwise its a 1 in 4 chance the flooded cylinder is on the compression stroke...
