Bad injectors can cause mis-fires (clogged or not opening properly) or flooding (stuck open). I once jammed up one of my injectors so badly that its cylinder did not fire at all. I ended up pulling them all out and reverse-flushing them with injector cleaner spray. Did you try running some cleaner through the gas tank?

X2 what Kemicalburns advised.
Get a fuel pressure gauge on the rail, and see if in fact it's delivering (X) amount of fuel without any hesistation. Mine did the same and it was the fuel pump.
