I haven't seen any threads that indicate a fuel regulator fixes a no fuel at injector problem, but you would think it would happen at some point.
Also, since you purchased the car with a 'no fuel at injectors problem', and you seem to be making progress, you might want to try pinching off or blocking the Fuel Accumulator hose that goes to the gas tank. At least this will ensure that you are getting all of the fuel and pressure to the Fuel Distributor.
Fuel delivery test from my manual:
Specification:
1 liter in maximum 40 seconds at a minimum
voltage of 11.5 volts at the fuel pump.
If the delivery is less than 1 liter in 40
seconds, test the following points:
a) Test voltage at the fuel pump. Specification
at least 11.5 volts.
b) Check that strainer in supply line fitting of
fuel distributor is not blocked.
c) Check fuel lines for restriction points
(pinched lines).
d) Clamp off leak line between fuel accumulator
and fuel suction hose. Re-check fuel
delivery. If the specified delivery quantity is
reached, replace fuel accumulator.
e) Replace fuel filter.
Just a thought....keep reporting back Brent. Curious minds want to know.
