More diagnosing...

Thank you for your help and suggestions.

When I got home, I went straight for the fuel filter and swapped it out.
Hoping for the best and trying to start the car, no luck.
After thinking it over some more, I checked the fuel regulator. When taking it apart, gasoline shot out like the fuel rail flooded. Reinstalling it with a new regulator, the motor had turned over right away, but when stepping on the accelerator the engine would die.

Coming up with new possible diagnosis, I'm think it might be the spark plugs, the distributor, or the coil pack. On the otherside it could be the mass air flow sensor.

Thanks again for any tips or suggestions.
