So my old engin e died and I got another from gay bay. The seller said it ran fine and just smoked a little on start up , I have no reason to doubt this , he seemed like a nice chap.
The engine is a 1990 with 200k.
Anyhow, I bled it and bled it until im sure I got all the air out.
At idle it misses randomly and chuffs out white smoke. The tappets need adjusting but I cant see that causing a random miss.
When driving it pulls really well and compared to my last 19j its really quick , but its leaving a cloud of white smoke behind it.
No oil in water or water in oil.
So far ive swapped out the injectors and replaced the boost diaphragm and lift pump.
Any ideas? I think ive got all the air out but I will use some clear pipe on the end of the leak off just to be sure.
