Crawf,

Sorry can't help with that style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif .

Maybe, as you imply, lrenthusiastforum should be posted. It is a good resource. Probably due to the mass.

Let us know what you find.

I would say not normal.......black smoke would be rich fuel......shouldn't hurt it though....run it for a few days and see if it cleans itself up, maybe try some fuel additive (like diesel power).....if it doesn't will probably need to go back for readjustment....

Is it running better? ie. feel more ooompff?

If its fuel mixture will sort itself out on normal throttle, will only smoke on accel.
Just dont use the extra "power" as much.. he eh

Also think about changing fuel and air filters.

Hey Bazzle, just replaced Fuel Filter with a crossland unit awsome has glass bowl at bottom enables you to see any **** or water, installed a JR Filter, exactly the same as K&N but mad in France, I seemed to have spoken to soon it has cleared itself after running Morey's diesel conditioner!!!! She has definately more ommmph!!!!!!!!!!!! 8)
