Rough time starting my truck! help!

Hi All,

I have a 90 V6 pickup 4x4, It started out with getting flooded all at times, only way to get it started it to get thetruck a push start. There is spark, I changed the fuel filter, than I put new injectors, While doing the injectors, I noticed the dampner screw was missing, replaced the dampner as well. Now I have everything back together, it doesnt run the same but I do notice that I may broke a vacume line, it is connected to purge on the one end, the other end, I dont know where it goes. anyone? every 1 out of 3 mornings it will flood! Lots of white smokes comes out for about 5 mins until its warmed.
Help.

Thanks a bunch

Thanks for the reply guys, I will check into the cold start injector, never heard of that. And for the white smoke or steam.... It sure looks like white smoke, but only get white smoke when I push start it after flooding.

And I found out where the 'purge' line goes to, the other end goes into the rear of the engine, but I cant get to it, do I need to remove something to get it install?

Thanks again
