Hello everyone!

Hope you are all well!

Many things got in the way of all this - but its all done.

Checked valves - all good except for 6 which was o.k. but still i adjusted it
Installed clear hoses - no bubbles
New filter
New blow-by hose


The car runs very well, most problems are gone - although the top speed is still unchanged max 115km/h maybe less (GPS info)

What now


*in the meantime the car drove ~1500km, it didnt really clean up, still smokes quite a lot.

Good progress.
I am guessing that by now you know how to set the timing and perhaps did that very precisely And that you also double-checked it again. And you said your filter is new (=good point).

Describe what kind of smoke you are seeing, what color, etc, how much of it... and... when (cold, warm, both, under load, *always?, in all conditions?, etc).

I recall your injectors were set at a Bosch shop (?) so for now I wouldn't blame them. Is your timing set well, 100% ?

By the way, what did you set it to?

Yes, the timing is at 0.86mm i think, i will check it again but it doesn't seem changed. I checked it after a few miles after adjusting.

The injectors were done at a bosch shop, yes But they were also incompetent to set the timing if you recall.

Top speed problem is weird and not pleasant - not that i intend to drive faster but its difficult with the car around trucks and hills. My cruising speed of 80kph is awfully close to top speed

Smoke:
-a lot of thick white-gray on cold mornings, lasts a few mins
-no smoke at warm idle at all, very little smoke at coldish idle
-A lot of blue/gray/white smoke combo when hard(ish) accelerating --- a weird mix of all, seem a bit different from day to day
-a lot of same smoke from point above when cruising at 80kph (permamently seen in rear view mirror)

There is so much smoke that im getting "the look" from other people in traffic often.
