OK, enough is enough. Flush the oil and give the engine a new Mann filter and synthetic oil. AutoRx is a cleaner, not oil, and it has done its job.

As to the fuel pressure, check the vacuum line that goes from the regulator to the vacuum tree. It should be clean, and the port in the vacuum tree should also be clean. If the vacuum line smells strongly of gasoline, that might be a problem. Of course, your vacuum pressure has decreased because of the cleaner engine, so that might have helped. Wait a week or so before tearing into all of the suspected parts related to lean burning.
