i have a 1987 3.8 century
i hit a deer only damaging the front end everything else is fine
it ran ok for 2 weeks then it sat for 2 days and then wouldnt start up
me and my friend worked on it and had it started for 15 seconds then it stalled, but it was rough idling. it turns over fine but it blows gas mix
OUT of the intake instead of in
could this be bad timing, cam sensor, or some kind of sensor i can replace???

Wow. I would check the timing first. Pull a plug and the valve cover. Make sure the valves are opening at the right time. If that is okay are you backfiring? The only way for fuel to come out the intake is a valve being open at the wrong time. Good luck.
