The CEL shouldn't be flashing at all have you checked for fault codes Chris Palmer's Home Page.
When i installed mine i went for an hour driving at various (legal) speed limits.

dont quote me on this but i think the z4 is mapped for a higher ron fuel than 97, try filling up with v power when you have used all your 97 ron fuel.
