If you had an extra set try switching the one with one of those. Or it might be the dizzy rotor, just a few things to check before spending $100+ on an injector and not fixing it.
Maybe run some seafoam through the gas?

I changed my plugs, plug wires, cap and rotor in May (plugs and wires are both NGK). When I changed that all out the plug that was in cyl 3 was completely fouled. I even seafoamed it right before I did my tuneup. My dad and I are getting ready to do a compression test right now so we'll see what's going on with the losing oil atleast. I'm going to be replacing the injector today and I'm thinking I might have a bad oil ring or something else wrong with that cylinder since I'm losing oil in addition to running rich.

get a set of mounts and a LS tranny. Little investment but will last along time, pull ok, and return great mileage
