Although the project has been put aside while I get my UrQ on the road, I recently did a comparable swap of NG and CIS-E3 into '87 4kq.  Engine runs fine, but starts only after priming injectors.  I am pretty sure I have leaky injectors (only cleaned but not replaced) or a pressure leakdown someplace.  I have not taken the time to follow through yet - mainly replacing the injectors and fuel pressure accumulator as well as perform system tests.  

Perhaps some of the info. I have posted on the swap may help.  See:

I hope to be updating all this soon as work moves forward again on GTQ, now that the UrQ is just about ready for the road.

How much exactly did you swap over?  You can run the 2.3 with CIS-E, as 
long as you don't encounter knocking you'll be ok, but the CIS-E will 
need to have all of its senders and bits swapped over for it to work right.

Which fuel distributor did you use?

I would have swapped over the CIS-E3 harness as well, if it were my 
option, by the way...
