Had some success today on the list of bits to do on my 300tdi. I decided that as the weather was on the poor side i would fix something that would not hopefully take too long. I knew when i got the car that the fuelling had been messed with by the P.O. I read everything i could on tweeking the pump on the forum last night whilst having a beer and decided to give it a go this morning. I found that the diaphram in the pump had just been turned to give maximum fuelling and nothing else had been tweeked. So following the instructions i found here i tweeked the diaphram back abit, moved the star washer so that it did not put out so much black smoke when accelerating from low revs and adjusted the torx bolt to get a nice clean pull away with as little smoke as possible. It drives so much nicer and now i can drive down the street and not worry about how much money im converting to black smoke!
