Is the O2 sensor cycling? Look at the O2 volts, and you should see it bouncing up and down. If not, then it could be an exhaust leak before the sensor, or bad wiring.
If it does cycle, the first thing I would do is reset the ECU. Pull the MPI fuse (near the battery) for half a minute. Then look at the O2 feedback trim while the car idles after it is warm. Keeping your eyes on the feedback trim, it should be bouncing around the 100% mark. If it deviates from there, you want to very slowly add or remove idle fuel on the SAFC to "reel in" that trim. The low trim will be set based on whether you can keep that feeedback trim in the middle. You want to accomplish this while the low trim stays locked at 100%. Don't give the ECU a chance to change that trim.
I'll assume you are running stock injectors? If that's the case, and the O2 sensor is working, and you have to add idle fuel - there must be a lack of fuel for some reason. Most obvious would be a vacuum leak, but you mention you've checked. Could be leaking injector insulators, low fuel pressure, clogged fuel filter, a leak in the compressor inlet pipe, a MAFS problem. The list goes beyond forever.

I think it's worse than that, Mike. The thread's disappeared without a trace. Lots of seeking, no finding! I found the thread in a search, that's where I pulled the link from. The search seems flakey to me for some reason though. I had to search by my name over 5 years in the fuel system forum. Link to old pageRob is right it's likely the throttle body shaft seals. There are 2 small oring type seals on either end of the shaft that will have to be replaced. I did it once on my 92 and it sealed up perfectly after that.
