Maxima will start but die
2001 Maxima 3.0l 5spd
Background: Had po505 replaced IACV and repaired ecu. Put it all back together and started fine idled at 1000 rpms and could not relearn because after starting a couple of times it would go to 1000 then drop to 200 and catch itself before dieing then go back to 1000. When I went to take it for a test drive it died and now when I start it it just dies unless i give it gas and as long as in gear or above 1000 rpms it wont die but let off the gas and die. Drives fine as long as the rpms are up. Have a raw gas smell with white smoke when it did idle. After disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it will start again but do the same thing eventually, get to a point where the computer will learn theres a problem and just die after starting.
Do I have a fuel problem with an open injector or something. Drove it for ten minutes and no codes yet. Should I drive it more? Anybody suggestions would help because I'm stuck on what to try next.
