it runs a little rough until it warms up, then ok.
gas does not drip out after it has been shut off until it has cooled down and then is started again.

perform a fuel pressure leak down test on the vehicle and see if its holding pressure and then do a fuel pressure test. sounds like its getting too much fuel
