Hi guys I'm new to this site. Had a 306 1.9TD for almost 2 years and was great until the head gasket went, gutted!! Replaced with a W reg 1.9 standard diesel and having nothing but problems. Its a real pain to start from cold, releases a massive cloud of rich smelling smoke then runs really juddering for a good 10/15 mins. Then whilst under normal running it loses power going uphill. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be wrong??? Many thanks. Tom
