Theres no Altitude Compensation System (Thankfully,) I'm at 5000 feet and this thing came from sea level so thinking about backing off the fuel a quarter turn. Though, also considering just taking it to a diesel shop.
Yeah good call on the fuel pump, it could well be over fuelling! Dyno tune would probably sort it out.
Did you notice a reduction in engine noise with the 2 stroke oil?

Yup, definitely runs smoother with the addition of the 2 stroke. Though, could also be from burning off old fuel, not sure what was in the tank when I got it.
Just heard back from the diesel tuner. Telling me it needs a light load advance adjustment, looking at a few hours of labor to pull the pump and get it on the test bench. Not a cheap ordeal.
Smooth idle, smooth start, starts sooting at 1/4 acceleration. Almost no soot in 1st gear, if you keep it redlined and shift into 2nd it just starts belching.
Anyone out there been through this? Does it make sense with the symptoms to you?

Finally got it sorted. The pump was delivering 72 cc's of fuel, when it should have been down around the 50's. When they had the pump out they were a little dumbfounded as the tamper cap had never been removed. A few laps on the dyno and it's running great!
So it was over fuelling. Good to see it sorted brother, big heaps enjoyment now eh?
