i got a b18a1 pretty much stock except for bolt on's and i have prelude injectors. after i drive my car for a bit and stop, it either wont idle or wont start. i smell fuel sometimes driving. when i try to start it, it just bogs out and giving it some gas dosen't help at all.
my guess is the injectors, since they are bigger, is giving me too much fuel. could this be the problem? should i just find some OEM injectors for it?

You pretty much answered your own question. Yes, if the injectors are bigger and not needed it will cause problems. You are throwing in extra fuel that is not being controlled by anything.

X2 your flooding out your motor. Or you may have a problem with your IAC (idol air controll).

Unless there was an underlying problem I highly doubt seafoam is whats causing the problem. I say the first thing to try would be to put stock injectors back in the car. You are putting to much fuel in that is not needed.

if youre running larger injectors, and not tuned for them, then theres the first place to start.
