Engine has covered about 6000 miles since recon,no oil being used between changes and smoke only appears once engine has heated up ,nothing from breather pipe while engine cold.Think heads gonna have to come off.

My 2.25 diesel mokes excessively from the breather pipe the smokes a light grey in colour and seems t be worse when idling .I've replaced pump,injectors and dizzy.I've no smoke from tail pipe only on first start up and under hard accelerating and thats black. thanks:confused:

Thanks yella ,timing definitely out but only EP and TDC as timing marks on flywheel so been trying to set timing by setting TDC mark in line with the pointer then turning crank so thick spline on pump is at 20 degrees to the engine!Very stressful!

Thanks yella disco,first thing i tried ,got a known working dizzy fitted problem i've got now is the only marks on my flywheel to use for timing are TDC and EP ,got it started this morning really rough and knocking how can i fine tune it as shown in the landrover manual without timing marks.

Driving along the other day my trusty s3 diesel ground to a halt no fuel ,pump had it i was wrong lots of diesel on cranking and on manual pump gets to the distributor but thats it nothing to injectors and only out of one bleed vent .sourced my self a known working dizzy still no joy any ideas...
