Paul, once again you are correct. I looked up the specs and they are 0.50mm @15deg. this is what my pump is set to now.
I have a problem with it now. I think I may have run some water through it or something, though at no particulat point did it behave strangely. It doesn't have the familiar clatter it usually had before I started burning hydraulic transmission fluid, and it is down on power a bit, idles higher, and smokes black at full throttle, though not a lot, but more than before. I wasn't heating my oil up before use, but as it is summer here, it wasn't particularly thick either. Also, it is hard to start now, and won't idle for the first 5~10 seconds. Great. I guess it could either be 1)IP, 2)injectors, or 3)low compression. I can't see how the oil may have burnt the pistons or something like that. Even with fresh diesel, it only clatters a little at idle, and no other time as before. I checked the IP timing and it is right on.
When running, it is down on power a bit as described, but is runnung smooth, on all cylinders ( as per injector line test).

Anyone with some guesses? What does a bit of water do to a IP? I'm guessing that's what it may have been.

Gee, just when the fun was beginning..... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />
