1998 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 Automatic 5.7 Gas. I had a loud ticking. I thought it was an exhaust leak. I checked the bolts they were tight. I just installed new exhaust manifold gaskets a month ago. I checked the Fuel Injectors I unplugged the #7 Fuel Injector plug and the load ticking stopped. I plugged it back in and it ticked. I unplugged it again and it stopped. I ordered a set of New Fuel injectors and then installed them. I turned the Key on and cranked it. The motor started but ran like Shat and I turned it off? I turned the Key on again to start it and the Starter Clunked? The Motor would not spin. It turned out the #5 cylinder was full of Gas? I have to remove the spark plug and then crank the motor and the Gas comes out and the motor spins freely. I pull out the spark plug and crank it and the same thing happens? I ordered one New Fuel Injector and installed it in the #5 Cylinder thinking it was stuck open but the New injector also fills the cylinder with gas and Hydrolocks the Motor?..................HELP
