Does  it smoke out the tailpipe under load ?
if it does..
the Fuel Delivery Rate may be turned up too high , and could account for
this symptom.

good idea ! ..recommend a repaint to a darker color .  Good thinkin' !

which injection pump btw ?
a 'real' 1.9 NA injection pump ?
( thinking it could be a 1.6 pump with the fuel delivery rate turned up
very high . )
