After starting on the spare TBI I decided to pull the one off the burb and rebuild it instead.  You think that the broken spring inside the regulator may be the contributing problem..

Didn't you swap on a known good one already? What are you doing replacing the injectors and regulator?

One have one known good one and it is on my Daily Driver.  Can't afford to switch it.
I am not replacing the injectors, I am rebuilding the TBI.  The Burb has 380K miles on it....

Anyone know where I can get the fuel pressure regulator spring from?  GM doesn't have it seperate, or at least I haven't found it....

Vile, your link doesn't work.  Care to post the Part number?
I have went to 2 Autozones, 2 O'Riellys, 2 Advanced Auto Parts, 2 NAPAs and 2 dealerships.  None have located a PN or any reference to a way to get the spring.  O'Riellys will sell me a reman TBI for $280 + core, but all I need is the stupid spring. 
GM can get me the injector "pod" assembly with the regulator, but it is over $200.

I am probably either going to get a reman (don't want to) or hit the salvage yards unless I can come up with a PN for the spring so I can get this running again.  I KNOW someone has it how else can they rebuild them....

GM lists it as part of the cover

The pressure regulator is a diaphragm-operated relief valve with system operating pressure on one side and and atmospheric pressure on the other side. The function of the regulator is to maintain a constant pressure to the injectors at all times, by controlling the flow in the return line by means of a calibrated bypass.

NOTE: The pressure regulator on this unit is serviced as part of the fuel meter cover and should not be disassembled.

NEGATIVE, that doesn't come with the spring, it is only the diaphram.  GM does list it at the cover, and it is around $200 and it does have the regulator and spring and diaphram with it.  Question I am debating over is, do I buy a reman for $280 or a cover for $200 to get a $5 spring....

Well after some serious searching today I found a company that has a spring that is for 12-20psi for $5.

I guess I will be modding the regulator to be adjustable now :D
