Injectors just don't go bad all of a sudden, it will happen over time and sporadically, and just get worst over time as the seals deteriorate more.
The next time you have the issue try the exhaust sniff test I suggested, if it smell strongly of gas the issue is definitely a flooding issue and the injectors would be my first thing to check.
