Smokey Engine (TD)
Range Rover Blues:
What about if the pump has been tweeked? SWMBOs 300 TDi smokes when you stamp on it.
If it's using oil then use good quality stuff, cheap oil is a false economy. Try that Lucas stuff on E-Blag.

That's what I'm wondering.
1 - Has someone been playing about?
2 - Has it just been badly set up?
3 - Is it just knackered!?
I'm going to get someone to look at the timing settings on the fuel pump in case they are out, (Had a similiar problem with SWMBO's Skoda TDi) Sling some Diesel cleaner through it and check for a leaky diaphragm. Any more suggestions?
Cheers guys!

2.5TD is an engine from a lawnmower... possibly injectors are knackd?
Miniman:
Am I right in saying the TD pump works on some sort of pressure for the fueling may be there is a problem there.
dew1911:
Mine puffs out a little white on start up, but once it's had a minute clears down to nothing (Except a tonne of soot if you boot it!).
Basically as said above, We found that a good run cleared ours up a lot (It had done 450 miles between Nov 05 and July 06) and the 100 odd mile drag back from Yorkshire to ours really gave it a chance to come alive.
