Clogged injectors would lead to a lean condition, not running rich.
How much oil does it go through in 3,000 miles? What has the fuel mileage been doing? As for what to do, I don't know because at the moment we are trying to determine what is actually wrong. I try not to tell folks "Go run this through the engine and change these 6 parts and it will be fine" unless I know those parts are the problem. If the plugs are fouling out, we need to figure out if it's oil, which could mean rebuild or replace the engine due to worn rings or cylinder damage or valve stem seals, or if it's fuel which could be from a bad pressure regulator, internal leakage or high fuel pressure.
If the engine has been running that badly it should also be setting codes, so scanning it to pull those is one thing you could do.
