The pre-98's have a return fuel system and shouldn't be showing that kind of pressures - should be 45 psi with the vacuum line off the fpr and around 32 psi with the vacuum line attached - make sure your return line isn't kinked somewhere. Otherwise, you may have a bad fuel pressure regulator. Either one of these could cause flooding out of a cylinder - blowing out the spark.

+1 on Birds post I could not remember what year they changed to the 1 line fuel system with the higher pressure. the good news is that your fpr is not in the tank so if that is the issue it is an easy fix. I think the part is less then $50

I am not sure of the actual procedure but if you pull the vacuum line of the fpr and there is fuel in it I think that is your problem. the diaphragm in the fpr has failed.

You guys are giving me hope. I'll check that today.
