Help ?!?!? Black smoke :(
OK, I have a 89 200TDi which has a smoking problem. Being a newbie to the TDi ( I've owned several series petrol LWB's and re-built every part at some stage so I'm not totally incapable lol ) I need the best advice I can get.
Could anyone tell me how to determine what the problem may be, and how to find/rectify it... I've been told it may be the boost on the pump, or the turbo dumping too much fuel, or worn/clogged injectors but without spending £'s I don't have I'd like to work out the problem before putting my hand in my moth infested wallet The guy I bought it off said he's had the pump 're-calibrated' but I've a feeling he may have just had it turned up to get more power, could this be it ???
Thanks in advance for any help offered

RE: Help ?!?!? Black smoke :(
If it smokes at idle you can have a intake that is some what restricted.
If you put your foot on the go pedal and you get smoke the other owner
advanced the injection timing, moved the pump.
The first thing is check the pump timing, after that you will
have to clean the intake black smoke = soot .
It just needs a little TLC.
Good Luck Mike.
If you need this to pass the MOT you can try some bio diesel no smoke.
