Almost certainaly a bad injector. Happenned to my 93 GXE at 160k
miles. Replaced one injector and cured the problem, then had same
problem turn up in another cylinder. Sold the car shortly afterwords.
I'm guesing that all injectors at this mileage are near to failure.
Sorry for the bad news, maybe others have better news.
