clogged fuel filter? are you sure the vacuum hoses don't have any cracks, sometimes the fittings get brittle over time too.

Why do you suspect the fuel pressure regulator? Have you checked the pressure with a gauge?

Yes, next I would throw on a pressure gauge on it. Check over the injector rail lines. If theres a kink somewhere, it will be overpressure.

i'd pick up a fuel filter for $5 and a fuel pressure regulator for another $5-10. Easy swap. 87 there are two Socket head cap screws, but the others are 3, which are bolted upside down...its fun to take them off
