Its running too rich could be caused by one of the following:
1.Excessive fuel pressure can be cause by restricted fuel return line
2.Defective Oxygen Sensors.
3.Leaking injectors and fuel pressure regulator.
4.Coolant temperature sensor out of calibration.
5.Restricted air intake system.

Check the sensor's resistances Hot and Cold if its not within specs-replace it
