Pull the vacuum line off the FPR and see if any gas leak out of the port; if so, the diaphram is ripped in your regulator. Most likely it's your fuel pump.

Replace your pump! its bad. Regulator will not dump that much fuel even if it leaking! and at that point the fuel would be shooting everywhere.
