Make sure your not getting air in your fuel. I have found that the fuel line can rub the body close to where dog house bolts to the floor. Of course this is on a BB conventional and may or may not be applicable to your situation. Good luck.

You may have a bad huei pump. That is a fairly common problem with the C7. Not to ruin your day but when the pump fails it sends metal particles down stream to the injectors.

I reread your post and see that you replaced the regulator. If the pump was your problem usually you see metal in the regulator.
