More updates if anyone can help? I open the high pressure pipe from the cut off going to the regulator and with everything else connected (Don't try this at home children) gave the key a quick turn and there is full pressure there for sure! I still cannot get any pressure reading at the regulator test port. My digital test pressure tester is new and I checked it on my van wheel and compressor and seems to work fine. My adaptor at the reg is just a treaded on one end brass pipe and I have a valve from a car rim shoved up on it. I used this adaptor before testing other equipment and it seems to work well. Just to be sure the valve is opening I cut of the first 1mm off it so it will be sure to open. Long story short I have full high pressure going into a brand new reg but I am not getting the results at the test port. The only other thing I did since is I found a restrictor inside a red plastic pipe which runs from air intake and enters nears the base of the throttle body. This restrictor did seem to be a bit blocked but after clearing it the engine will now no longer run it just starts and instantly stops. Any ideas welcome.

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
