Stock '94 4.0 Fule pressure regulator

Driving to go wheel a get about 100 miles from home and the truck starts spittin and sputtering... black smoke out the tail pipe--- mostly when I let off the gas... I think "A HA" Fuel presure regulator (been down that road before) Pull the codes and get a 111 and a 181 (Lean fuel in bank one.) So we get on the trusty phone/net we locate one, and get it installed. Clear the codes and reset the ecm. Drive all day wheelling no problems drive 30 miles at highway speeds to a resturaunt no problem.. head home--108 miles down the road same thing spit spit sputter-- I limp the last 20 miles home and in town it is really bad-- barely runs at all. Now I just replaced the Fuel pressure regulator in Feb-- now this one went bad after 130 miles?

Any one have a clue whats going on? Could possibly be another bad regulator but the odds are looking like it is something else? Last August I had the return line come off of the tank-- Related????
