Hi. Me and a few mates have just put a 200tdi in my defender. On idle it sounds fine as soon as you apply throttle almost full it pops and crackles. People have been saying lift pump so we changed that. Done Injectors. Timing. Any help would be much appreciated. We think it’s a fuel problem maybe starving itself of fuel. But I would imagine this is the place to ask a lot more experienced people on here.
 
Put a clear piece of pipe upto the injection pump and look for air bubbles, could be an air leak from filter or tank,

If it is starving itself of fuel, I wouldn't expect cracking and popping, I would expect a lack of power, and possibly cutting out altogether.
 
I would say with that amount of smoke its fuel related (no shti sherlock!) how did you set the timing?
Has the pulley been removed off the injector pump at any time?
 
With it being a new built engine on that video I would guess that’s burning off the assembly oil
With exhaust on and warmed up would sound better

That’s not my engine by the way that’s just something similar to mine mine was second hand but it sounds the same as that one. Just to clarify
 


Here a link to a clip of my truck and how it sounds. Not sure if you get notified if I post it so I was trying to reply to all your comments so you do get a notification but I will try this way instead and post it to the thread. Thank you
