You shouldn't have any measurable pressure after the regulator, as the fuel there is "overflow". You should be reading 29 to 30 PSI before the regulator. Regulators rarely, if ever, fail. Usually, it's the pump failing to make enough pressure and flow. This could be a bad pump, a bad filter, or a clogged screen inside the fuel tank. The latter is common in cars that have been sitting for a long time. The clogged screen is often rust from the inside of the tank. Lotsa things to look at, mostly expensive.

Thanks for all your help . while researching through the forum archives , I found a schematic that showed the proper way of fuel line routing and discovered that someone crossed some of the fuel lines . I corrected the fuel lines and it ran .
