I hesitate to suggest injectors but only because they're a chunk of change and I haven't personally tried that fix yet. Once I do, I'll be sure to share info.
That said, any 24 year old fuel system is going to have problems. Especially a system that requires extreme precision like vehicles. The injectors are of an early design and with batch fire, there's a LOT of use going on in 200,000+ miles. I think it's a miracle that they still work at all. I'm going to end up replacing mine with rebuilt ones of a newer design (91 & 92 used a pintle-style, 93 & up used a 4-hole style). I don't expect it to be turned into a hot rod but I do expect an increase in mileage and am hoping to see smoother performance.
