BMC 1.5 injector pressure please!

[ZuidWester]

I took the injector out as the engine put out alot of white smoke when cold.

I have two injectors showing a pressure of 120 bar and two with 140 bar!
What should the correct pressure be?

Help!

Ask your local diesel injector expert? - they should know......

Thanks!

Thanks for your help. I was told that the max. tolerence is 3 bar. Anything more and the motor will not run properly. Thing is I've been running the motor for the last 4 years without knowing this. I'm looking forward to starting it again with the serviced injectors

BTW. A search found the same pressure for the Leyland Sherpa 1.8D motor.
