So you had rust in your fuel system?!
All the way up to the fuel rail?
If the rust got to the rail, or made the filter disintegrate to the point of sending parts of it to the rail you have a few things wrong.
First thing is you need to remove the fuel rail and pressure regulator. You then need to remove the injectors one at a time and look at the screens in the top of the injector. You can remove them by carefully getting your fingernail under the lip and getting it out. I would get a white piece of lint free cloth and tap the top of the inj. lightly on the cloth to get them out, you can then see if anything was indeed in there. If the screens are broken you will need new injectors, if they are just clogged then you can clean them out and re install them.
The second thing you need to look at is the pressure regulator, see if its got any debris in it causing it to jam open. If you remove the inj. screens and there was debris in them I would go with a new regulator.
Good luck with it, hope I help you with some ideas.Take it apart and let us know what you find.
