Sorry White/grey (though its been very windy today so hard to tell) It starts fine and sounds OK (ie not lumpy or missy) but smokes under load with poor performance. Air filter is clean, AFM seems ok. tried to check CPS but couldnt find it (in any case I would have thought a CPS fault would generate a fault code and a dashboard light) Told customer that with "Starship Mileage" new injectors would probabally not be too bad an idea anyway (and that with sensors such as the lift sensor which deteriorate rather than fail) diagnosis can be tricky other than by substitution. However I do prefer not to use the guess method wherever possible. Paul
