timing question
Just replaced i.p. and all injectors in my 94' turbo. It had bb injectors in it and replaced them with g code and a 5069 pump, milage was around 10 mpg.On setting the timing with cold advance on i set it with a pretty good power stroke rattle that mostly goes away after warm up.The problem is i am getting a little black smoke at idle and wonder if the timing is off a little and which way to turn the i.p. to advace or retard the timing.

Since you still have a slight rattle after warmup, I would try to retard it just a little bit. Other that idle, how does it run and drive?
My hunch is that the CDR valve may also need to be serviced. My truck was also throwing a little smoke at idle, and soaking the CDR in gas overnight was the fix.
