unburned fuel makes me think that its either a bad O2 or possibly even a fried valve. if it's running rich as hell then it must be the O2 sensors. id check that if i were you.

Yea man, those electrical Gremlins will get you everytime. That is weird that you didn't notice your lights or gauges acting up though. Im glad you got it fixed !!

typically you notice either your volt gauge is really fluctuating with your blinkers or system on (how i noticed it on my old truck) or your headlights look really dim. i agree though they usually go out pretty quickly when it happens to be that time.
