It might just be me but it doesn't sound like its idling right, or running on all 6.
first inspect the cap and rotor easiest to check. either of those could cause you to be loosing spark on some cylinders and hence the rich smell.
If those are in good shape you could have an injector issue, or even an ecu issue. both of those things have happened to people before and have very similar symptoms cause the ecu can cause issues with the injectors.
Since it looks like you have 2 sc's I would first try swapping the ecu's to see if you have an ecu that went bad.
if not check the injectors out, maybe try the set from your other motor. you could start disconnecting injector clips one at a time and see if it smooths out to find the one thats bad. there may be a resistance check as well.
Since you said all your plugs look wet, and not just a few of them, I would try swapping the ecu before the injectors.

Instead of creating a new thread i have a question i have two ecu's

#1) The original ecu that came with the car works fine the car idles well and drives very responsive "BUT" transmission bounces from 3rd gear and 4th gear and well never really goes into 4th gear .

#2) This Ecu is from my first sc and the car goes into all gears "BUT" doesn't always feel so responsive in throttle and when at a light the car idles super low even after adjusting the throttle cable

What Can It Be?

Anybody have a clue i need answers.

did you have idle issues before? this is going to sound weird but do a scan on your charging system. if you don't have 100% continuity, it will give you some headaches as to tracing the exact problem. are you using the same transmission that came in the car along with its original electronics?
