hi guys since i brought this damm disco 300td1 1995 had trouble after trouble.gearbox went and ive just replaced that and clutch. and now a new problem. 2weeks ago i tweeked the pump slightly the proper way. the diffrence was superb. no black smoke and running brilll. then today i went to fetch a car back on my trailer 260 mile all round trip.i noticed when on way back it seemed to start to dye down on hills and had to change down still pulling good. then when i got back started to notice that when i was pulling off with trailer on it was very sluggish to pull off and large bouts of black smoke issueing then it would pich up and clear ok when driving along but only doing it every time you stop to pull off or come down the gear to 15mph and then hit gas and it will smoke again black smoke. now only other thing i did yesterday was leave the cat in situ and done away with the silencer boxes and made a straight through exhaust. other thing i drained the water out of that filter housing at rear of chssie. thats it so what could this be.
