I took the plugs out and disconnected the electrical connection on the injectors, and cranked the engine. It seems to turn over smoothly, but lots of fuel kept geysering from one of the cylinders, shooting as far as 10 ft up. After a few turns on the ignition key, the fuel lessened and finally stopped gushing out, making me believe that the one of the cylinders flooded and I was able to push all the fuel out of there. So I think the engine is alright...If the rod was bent, wouldn't it be a little rough?
Also, the one plug that came out of there was pretty wet, the others seemed damp.
