Fuel regulator ok did not see or smell gas from the regulator. map sensor and throttle position sensor replaced also.Could this be a vacuum leak problem, maybe when vaccume hose gets hot it expands and leaks?

I am leaning toward bad injector, when plugs are pulled are all sooted or just one.

Yes me to although I did a fuel injection service at a shop, this is where the send the injection cleaner directly through the carb. When I replaced the plugs as I remember there was 1 plug that did look a little smutty. Is there a way of pressure blowing out the injectors and is this expensive, Can a injector expand with heat and cause problems when it gets hot. Does and injector usually get stopped up or does it just go bad on most vehicles . If so with this many miles I may just drive it until is stops then put a lower millage motor in it.

Excess fuel will run good with a cold engine, not so good hot. I would say the sooty plug has the bad injector.
