Aiden.. it has a multiple knock. With the original pump, took over 30sec to start. Was not knocking but on road test was very flat. As my original post states the timing was a couple of teeth retarded which could account for both problems. On hindsight I could have adjusted pump timing and tried it but the customer did not want a diagnosis as it had already been checked elsewhere. I thought all I had to do is carry out customers instructions and fit pump supplied. I think it must be a pump fault but does not explain how when retarded three teeth from correct timing point it still has the SAME diesel knock. Thanks for your intersest Les
