Another 240 runs rich, blows smoke, throws codes 200

Thanks Art,
Now I have a few more things to check (oh Joy!)...I also really felt it was the FPR...especially when it started running so much better (even before the new plugs were installed). How could I kill a new FPR just by driving the car? It seems to me only excessively high fuel pressure would damage something with a a diaphram in it (and cause rich running). I'll pull the vacuum hose to see if fuel drips out...but if not should I assume it is OK? Could I check it by applying vacuum to the unit?
Jon
