2.1 bosch conversion probs

Post by snakie »

just done the bosch conversion on my 2.1, everything went together really well, timing belt tricky but managed it.. car started but alot of white smoke and wouldnt tick over screwed the fuel half turn then a full turn, smoke still continued. could this be be faulty pump/injectors or something else any info would be helpful.
