White smoke/ stuck injectors

On my way to work my 135i started misfiring on 4/5/6 and clouds of white smoke came out. I had no choice but to drive the car to work and back home later that day. I decided to order new injectors, and I have a few questions.


1. I burned through 6 gallons of fuel driving 15min to work and back, I’m guessing this has completely destroyed my Cats. If the cats are melted, am i able to drive the car for a few days until i order some new *********, or will this cause further problem.

2. After I install the new injectors, Can i drive the car for a couple days until i can get them coded?

3. Should I replace plugs after the injectors, even though I just installed new plugs less than 5k ago?

4. Should I get an Oil change, because I read online that the excess fuel could have mixed with the oil?

5. I plan on doing a compression test after I install the injectors, because I’m worried that the rings might have been washed out. What compression #s am I looking for?

Any info is appreciated, Thank you

Codes:

29F1
29D0
2B2B
29D0
29D9
29D1
29D2

Video looks like a TDI with an A/F issue.

Typically Coolant is white

Oil is blue

Unburned fuel is black

I swapped the injectors with some part number "079s" from ECS tuning. My injectors have numbers ending in (261-12) on them, so I'm guessing these are the new index 12 Injetors?? The swap was very straight forward and easy. It took me less than a hour to swap them out. The car fired right up and smoked for a few minutes.

I did the oil change immediately after swapping them. The oil flowed out of the drain plug like water, because it was filled with a lot of gas.

I did a compression test, and got 170 compression across all cylinders.

The car idles a lot better, but I still need to put in new plugs and get the injectors codes. I'm also getting the valves walnut blasted in 2 week. I hope this is the end of my misfire issues. Thanks
