Having read the Haynes on the mechanical injection, and read any posts on here, it seems to be a very simple sytem, with few major problems.
Most problems can be fairly easily and cheaply resolved (injector to head seals harden and leak sensors sometimes fail, all parts availble).
No black boxes to fail and cost hundreds, no emissions rating, and you can even adjust the mixture.
The above advice quote is the best I've heard for ages, most of the parts to service this system are also still avaliable new or S/H. Will also take you round the world and back not sure if my S70R would lol............
