    Hi All

    Chap has been driving this focus for about a year with a problem when cold starting,it has a misfire and quite a bit of white smoke.This will last till it warms up but i am sure it is still slightly missing when up to temp.
    our local diesel company were able to test the first stage of the injectors only, but said that they are fine.
    Cam timing is spot on.
    compressions are
    1 2400
    2 2800
    3 3000
    4 2800
    These were best compressions whilst cranking.
    No fault codes
    Number 3 injector was coked up.
    Number 1 cylinder is wet (through injector socket)

    Anything common?
    Are the compressions normally this low?

    Regards Andy.
