I've found a local specialist place online thankfully. One thing i'm not sure on, are the injectors common rail or conventional injectors. I think they are conventional injectors.

Surprisingly i've managed to speak to a local land rover place that has a contact for testing injectors, but they said they didn't tend to bother testing them as they can supply a set for £72 plus vat. I'm thinking this is a sales tactic more than anything?

I wouldn't mind one for a project once i've got the landy going good again. Would be fun to drive that to work!

Thats abit bigger than the ones i used. I've spent many an hour driving 35s and 135s. We had the oil out of a 35 2 years ago that hadnt been changed since the farmers dad bought it back in the 70s. Nice creamy colour it was!

I didn't think of tractor places, i used to work on a farm and drove old masseys which share the same type of pump! Best give the old boss a ring! My family keep telling me to sell the old thing, but i keep telling them that it'll still be going long after their cars have been weighed in!

I work with a couple of landy owners so they might have a heads up on local guys. Guess i'll have to dust off the push bike again! Thankfully i have a lift to work for now!

I need to find a local injector place then, bit tricky traveling with no landy!

No i didnt do the injectors. I'll order them and fit them to see if it makes any different.

Pump was fitted to replace the pump that was on there that was lacking in any power in 4th gear, very hard to start. I had checked everything else and did it as a last resort. When i first fitted the pump, it smoked black but ran alrite and i had good acceleration in all gears. I took it for a...

The recon pump came from craddocks, i've no idea if they do good recons or not!

Its a recon pump so i wouldnt expect it to be worn? This is turning out to be a bigger job than i was expecting!

I can't time it so that it idles and revs smooth. The smoke could be described as very severe, acceleration causes a big cloud!

I did put it back to where it was with black smoke before, but it wasnt smoking black anymore. I shall have a look at the fly wheel

It definatly sounds like it is running on all four. Is there something you suggest i look at next? I'm not clued up on cam timing so where would i start?

I presume you mean the arrow on the label on the pump? I've got the pump as far as possible advanced but the white smoke still persists.

I've tried moving it in both directions. In one place it started off with very little smoke, but then it just started billowing out again. It is white smoke, no matter where the pump is positioned. It also seems to have no power at all when i try and move it up and down the drive.

Its a recon pump hence why i want to get it right! I'll give that a go in the morning, are we talking 1mm at a time sort of movement?

None that i could see, yeah bog standard 2.25 doozil

On acceleration, its a recon injector pump i put on friday to solve some other problems. Took it for a run this afternoon, went fine getting there, plenty of acceleration but black/grey smoke. On the way home theres acceleration in 4th but no great power.

Evening all, Which way is it that i turn the injector pump to reduce the amount of black smoke? I've tried looking online but couldnt find anything! atb mat
