pleased it helped
they are ur injector balance figures , which going from the chart they are worn if they are below 700 or above 1300 and will require reconditioning , however it also says to do a leak back test and measure how much there leaking by
don’t know if some injector cleaner may improve matters ??
the more experienced guys will be along to guide u far better than i can , as figures may have changed since that Pdf sheet was printed

cheers and indeed pleased with them
as it’s got worse i would indeed do a leak back test on the injectors to see how bad they are
alas don’t know what it costs to get them reconditioned or what the guys here recommend
assume ur glow plugs are all ok and battery fully charged
any smoke by the way plse

Got 3 glowplugs gone but thats been like it for a few years. Battery good
Had a look a Dieselbob online and he says the siemens vdo injectors cannot succesfully be reconditioned and anyone who claims they can , stay away !

that’s a shame they can’t be rebuilt
imagine new ones are around £200 each unless i suppose if second hand ones ever come up that’s from a known good engine ??
