Background - I got the engine in my '73 2.0 (D-jet) running a while back (after several years slumber). It actually was running pretty decently, other than a spastic AAR. But it had many oil leaks, so I dropped it to get to everything easier.

While it was out, I replaced all the vacuum lines, and a bunch of oil seals and such. AAR was disassembled and refurbished (as best I could). Eliminated the decal valve. No other injection work.

Now that the engine is in the car, it is running way rich, even when warm. So much so that it loads up after a bit and won't rev, and left to idle it will load up and die. AAR now appears to be working fairly well, once warmed there is little or no vacuum at that hose.

Since there really weren't many changes, I'm thinking this must be something fairly simple. Any suggestions?

Unplug the car cold start injector electrically and pull both fuel hoses off and put a piece of tubing to connect them together, thus eliminating it from getting fuel.

Make sure all your injector grounds are connected to the multi spade connector.

Check fuel pressure on drivers side, after the regulator (I still vote for this)
