Glad it worked out but don't forget to make sure the oil is not diluted. We used to check it by smell and when it was real bad you could light the oil on the dipstick on fire and it would burn.

If it's close to time just drop it and refill with fresh oil.

Your tank mileage will suffer severely.

On the first FI Z cars in 1975 Nissans system was licensed from Bosch. They had a flap air flow meter and all the injectors fired at the same time (not sequentially). Two things would flood that engines out in a very short time.

Open circuit in the water temp sender+massively rich engine died almost instantly. Jump the connection to the sender to daignose.

Fuel pressure regulator diaphragm ruptured, ran very rich but usually would keep running if you flogged the crap out of it.

Saw a live show of the Jersey Boys tonight, tickets courtesy of the two step daughters Christmas present. Great show for those who lived in that era.
