Injection moulded
I need some advice on my 2004 Mondeo TDCI auto. It’s done 74,000 miles. From cold, it starts, but blue smoke fills the road and it runs roughly. When driving at any speed it will hold back and yet again blue smoke. The smoke stinks of diesel, not oil. I’ve been to a diesel specialist and had new pump, new injectors, crank sensor and new fuel lines. I had a spare mint head and block that had done 30,000 miles, which I have now fitted but still no different. I had to use all the sensors off my original engine. Do you have any ideas?

Sorry, you have done everything I could have suggested and more. But it still reads like duff metering. (And that’s what it turned out to be. The replacement injectors were duff. Replacing them again solved L.P.’s problem.)
