As for the poor starting & smoke on start up I would think a new set of glow plugs should sort that out :roll: As for it beint tappetty I would look at adjusting the tappets :smile: As for the missfire & being sluggish I would disconect the MAF unit to see if there is any difference, if there is'nt I would look into replacing the Maf unit :roll: I would also have a look in the banjo bolt on the fuel pump to see if your truck has been fitted with a mini filter like my 1999 T2 had 8O since removing it I've found that the slight missfire/flat spot under 2k rpm has seamed to gone :roll:
You will find all the info & a step by step guide in the download section about these probs :smile:
