I have a 4.2 diesel GQ and just recently just had my injector pump upgraded,i went out for the frist time a week or so ago and when driving up a long slipery hill , about 3500/4000rpm the car started to cough and splatter and white smoke came out of the exhaust the revs then dropped bact to about 1500 and away we went, till it got to 3500rmp.
Is the fuel pump not set correctly? is the turbo boosting to much/is it knackered? or is the boost compinsator set wrong and not letting fuel through at high rpms?
I can free rev it and nothing like this happens , it only seems to do it when its under load. I had none if this happen before the pump was done
Any help/ ideas would be great
Cheers

help!!Any ideas whats wrong
You have a fuel restriction or sucking air problem. If all this is ok, then you have a pump problem.Did this happen before you did the pump?
The place that modded the pump, are they not able to help you?

WHITE SMOKE
White smoke usually occurs when there is not enough temperature to burn the fuel. The unburned fuel particles are then exhausted usually by a rich fuel smell. In cold weather it is not uncommon to get white smoke until engine temperature builds up. One cause of white smoke on engine start up could be faulty glow plugs or glow plug system. Low engine cranking speed can also create an excessive amount of white smoke.
If the problem persists after the engine is up to operating temperature several other things should be checked. A faulty injector can cause white smoke. Timing is often a factor when white smoke is excessive. Low engine compression can cause the problem and the injection pump can also have problems that result in white smoke. Air in the fuel system can also result in white smoke.
