Can any one tell me why this is happing and i just replaced the fuel injectors.... Thank you for your time!!!!!!!!!

If you have e.f.i., it sounds like the AFM isn't working right. Sounds like it's running really rich.

Check the exhaust smell, looks.

If the AFM is not working i have 3 or 4 spare with a few other spare parts

Sounds like you need to go through the cold start system. Thermotime Switch, Cold Start Valve, Air Regulator. Also check the temperature sensor. Sometimes, it's just a case of bad connections. If the cold start valve operates (bad thermotime switch) or leaks (bad cold start valve) after the car starts, that would account for the richness and difficulty accelerating. Do you have a Factory Service Manual?
