I chased a freaken problem with the car shuddering badly after it went into closed loop and the engine was up to operating temp. Chased it for weeks and found out the #6 wire burnt just slightly on the header and was arcing to the knock module and it never threw a code!
Make sure the wires are run so they aren't near anything or against each other.
Are you running the stock heat range on the plugs? If the car is that rich maybe the colder plugs are adding to the problem?
If you think it's injector related, I have a set of stock 24lbs you could borrow.
It's very, very rare on the newer cars, but on the 93-94s there were also some cases of the harness on the top of the engine being bad causing intermittent problems with injectors not firing - actually pairs of injectors not firing ( batch fire back then and wired in pairs). with your car running poke around at the wires, wiggle the harnesses and such and see if anything happens.
Moister may not be getting to the opti but maybe leaking or sitting back by the ECM harness? I would look at that wiring as well.

my wire are 7k miles old and about 4 months, theyre Taylor custom cut wires, theyre not run near theyre not running that close to anything and theyres no damage to any of them, i checked when it started doing it again, if it was plugs why would it be so intermittent? i would think it would do it all tthe time if it was that.
ill check out the harness near the ecm and also check the injectors, still kinda curious as to why my airbag light would go off....
