Before replacing the fuel regulator put a gague on it. I suspectec mine but it was actually the afm, I was not cleaning it hard enough. I used a 0-50 lb gague I had, put a hose barb on it, removed the plug and washer, put the hose and a clamp on it and it was perfect. I almost spent $70 for nothing.

Hey I've got the same thing happening.Runs like there's a potato in the exhaust pipe. I've just rebuilt this 1.9. I've checked timing, replaced all vacum hoses,replaced distributor, cap, rotor, plugs. I am changing the fuel pressure regulator today. I hope that is it, if not ?? maybe air flow meter (potentiometer). Any help would be greatly appreciated Mike
