Is there a general or standard setting on the rich lean adjustment on the injection pump on the 1.6 diesel? The reason i ask is because i pulled the pump off to reseal the cold start seal on the back of the pump because it was leaking and i also replaced the injectors and now the dang thing smokes like hell after i start it up and it ran great before i tore into it it just leaked diesel. any ideas?

Thats what i was thinking but im not to good with adjusting the timing on it so you have any tips on how to do it right.

Has to be the best IP timing how-to there is. I've met with the guy before and he even let me borrow his timing tools, when I had my '89 TD Jetta.
