Next time you are working on this "opportunity" car hook up two test items. Hook up a volt meter to the Oxygen sensor. This will tell you if the O2 sensor is sending a strange signal that may be either making the mixture too lean or too rich.

The other thing that I would try would be a timing light. The timing light will tell you if for some reason your timing is drifting.

You may want to have an assistant start the car so you can be ready to take reading and watch for anomalies.

I am thinking that it is a sensor that is giving the wrong information to the computer.

Good Luck and happy brickin'
