Hi guys, seems a nice forum, informative on many different aspects and i reckon i'll stick around for a while.
bit about me; well previously owned a lovely X Power Grey MG ZR Derv ofc! which i ended up crashing unfortunately, and it led me to buying the 306, a car ive had a bit of experience with before, albeit the XUD engine.
Used to the tuning side of cars and consider myself pretty mechanically minded, although would still have questions and queries, hopefully all or most of which i'll get help with..
now for the interesting bit, the car!

picked it up with no MOT, no tax and needing a track rod end, a handbrake cable, and a front wiper motor.
all sorted now, all it needs is an MOT a service and tax!
has one problem which is quite difficult to describe, but ill try anyway!
Theres a sort of puff-puff from the exhaust when i rev the car both on and off load, sounds almost like a misfire, and its quite smokey (Black). It's the standard map so im thinking it may be a stuck injector or a problem on the fuelling side, the filter housing was full of absolutely rotten fuel when i drained it, hence the need to service it, i have tried running injector cleaner through it to no avail so im unsure what else to do really, hoping thats where you guys will come in!
