Yeah get more tb/carb cleaner like 3 cans and hose that thing down. Take your time and triple check everything going back together and you should be fine. I would do the free TBI mods from thirdgen.org while you are there.

i hosed it down like crazy, went thru two cans almost. but is looking a lot cleaner now. is there any specific way that i should have cleaned the Fuel pressure regulator? i just kinda disassembled it and cleaned it really well then put it back together lol

Unless you were changing the spring to make it higher pressure or converting to adjustable, no.

read thru my other post...

the reason i cleaned my throttle body is bc when my motor runs really rough my injectors start dumping fuel so i figured maybe my fuel pressure regulator was bad
