Fuel Injector Question..... 200 1984

Engine turns over for 2-3 seconds before starting lately. Hesitates, floods easy until fully warmed up, then runs with full power but still a somewhat rough idle. Fuel mileage has dropped. Oil has a faint gas smell after changing it about 3 weeks ago. Checked FPR vacuum line and no gas smell there (new FPR last year). Have been thinking leaky injectors.

The B23F is supposed to have Bosch injector number 0280150209 (200cc/min, 16.2ohms). Found Bosch number 0280150734 (200cc/min, 15.9ohms) in this one. Could this difference in resistance cause it to dump more fuel into the system than the LH-2.0, 510 ECU can compensate for, or would it possibly have the opposite effect?

I still think one or more of the little buggers may be leaking into the cylinders. Getting ready to hit the JY to see if there are any 209's available.
