First step it to change the air filters. Mabey clean the outer filter, but replace the secondary. I wonder about the injectors. It got worse after the new injectors and valve job? If he just changed the nozzles, and not the whole injector, they would have to be set up properly on a pop tester. Even if he changef the whole injector, they still need to be checked. I assume the compression was good after the valve job? As for pump timing, it is primairly set on the gears, but there is a final adjustment on the pump mounting. There is a scribe mark on the pump ear that match marks on the backing plate. I think the zero on the plate has to match the mark on the pump. That is assuming that the pump is not internally timed. From what I understand, if they are internally timed, these scribe marks are not relevant for the purpose of setting timing. The timing was set at the factory. To remove an internally timed pump, the the doer should put a munch mark on the plate, so that he knows where it goes when it is time to put it back on. In this case, he probably didn't do that when he changed the timing. Try to set it back to the paint marks. That said, if there is nothing to go on, I would try setting it to zero, see how it works, and perhaps advance a bit from there. 1 index mark, I believe is 4 degrees. Standing behind, looking forward, turning the pump clockwise will advance the timing. As far as the smoke goes, they smoke some anyway, under load. IT is also possible that somebody screwed with the delivery when it was new, and then it is going to smoke. IT will pull pretty good too. Well, that's a few confused thoughts for tonight. Rod
