OK, boyfriend came back, and the starter is fried now! Rechecked the fuel pump, it is working. Rechecked Filter, it is in great shape. There is gas at the valve. We still have spark, but I think battery is finally wearing down
So he rechecked the vaccume line at regulator for gas, cranked the car, no gas came out, went to turn the key off, and the damn starter wouldnt shut off, it just kept cranking! I am sure that this is because we have worn it out trying to start it...if this is more symptomatic of what our original problem could have been, someone let me know

Boyfriend still thinks it is the regulator, we will have to test it tomorrow if we can find a fuel pressure regulator. I am wondering if that is not the problem now though since no gas came out of that vacuum line?
We have decided we will just have to borrow the money to tow the car here to our house, so it doesnt get impounded.
Especially now that it sounds like the starter and battery will have to be replaced as well.
Thinking the old girl has just died

Praying for a miracle...
