Default aeromotive fuel regulator garbage?

I'm using the compact EFI fuel regulator from Aeromotive boost referenced for my combo. I have the base fuel pressure set at 52psi and with the vacuum hose connected or removed the fuel pressure does not budge. Also, adjusting the screw on the regulator maybe moves the pressure 2-3 psi at the most. Does this sound like its time for a new regulator? Is it possible the diaphram has been damaged? I have heard many people don't care for Aeromotive regulators.

It definitely sounds like a regulator problem.

I have other regulators in stock that are a suitable replacement if interested.

Please call me to discuss at 724-322-8505. I have different regulators based on application & there are too many variables to discuss via PM's.

I've seen on the 13105 regulators when the boost/vacuum port is screwed to far in it "pinches" the spring in the cap and will not let it adjust. Take the cap off and see if this is the case. I'm pretty sure this is what you will find.
