If the white plug goes to the distributor so you don't have the phase signal it will over fuel massively.
The plug that goes to the side of the intake plenum is brown for the air temp sensor.
I would if it's not new fit a new coolant temp sensor, at rear of head below inlet, a blue sensor, next to a 1/2" water pipe.

LOl what the fuel pump relay causing over fuelling? If the car runs fine there is no need to touch the fuel pump relay.

Have you had the fuel pressure checked?

fuel presure is 3 bar. relay he said is like a regulator . when the engine is running idle it will send less fuel ..... the engine is over fueling badly that it wil need to take plugs out to restart bores get flooded hope this helps

Hmm wouldn't let that mechanic near my car! Fuel pump relay is switched on/off by the ecu (pin 28), it doesn't send a variable voltage to it, it simply earths the relay.

Is your tps connected? Or as mentioned above the ect sensor (blue) might need replacing or plug to it maybe faulty, if the ecu doesn't detect ect signal it will overfuel as it thinks it's cold so pumps extra fuel in.

Have you got the ICV and Cylinder 1 Injector plug the right way around? There both white and easy to get mixed up, I've done it several times!

He actually talking about the regulator this is a mechanical device and the only thing that can vary fuel pressure, you can see this if you look underneath the bonnet, it sits between the fuel feed and the injector rail. It increases the fuel at a 1:1 ratio.
