No luck.
still no spark.
getting another cps next I think.
Have you checked for the 5 volts to the spark coil?
Have you checked the primary spark coil itself to make sure it is not bad, totally open on an ohm meter? Verified the spark coil ground on the primary side of the coil?
Where are you checking for spark? At a secondary wire or at the coil?
I would be checking the CPS wires to the ECU if it was me.
If all else fails you need to swap test the ECU in case the CPS wire damage shorted out the ECU guts.
No brake lights when you have to mess with the shifter to get it to crank?
The brake light switch can tie into at least 3 systems, often converter trouble and cruise control.
I can't think of a good reason for it to affect the nss, unless you've got some major electrical gremlins

Dirty NSS contacts will cause a no crank and no back up lights issue.
Sweet! Glad it's on the road again!
I hate hunting down electrical demons, give me a mechanical problem any day.
The fuel pressure is low. What did it do when you unplugged the vacuum line from the regulator?
I think is supposed to climb to 40 psi for our years. If it doesn't then the regulator is bad.
If your tank is real bad then maybe the pick up sock and in line filter are clogged. But I'd start with the regulator like you're doing.
But hey it's running! Congratulations!
