Update.
After a few set backs I am pleased to report back that our engine is now running very well & is starting perfectly.
The compression was >300 on the front & <200 on the back cylinder (previously stated engine was a 2003 but is actually a 2002
)
So, head of & refaced head/valves/seats. Also, injector testing resulted in new nozzzles.
Now re-assembled & all adjustments made the engine is starting just 2-3 turns from cold. I'm very pleased
A big thankyou for all of this goes to volvopaul (user of these forums) who made very light work of diagnosing & carrying out the repairs.
Thankyou to all of you who gave such good advice - this forum is such a useful resources.
