I presume this is after having had the bent valves etc. replaced and the
belt replaced? Because if the belt had snapped it wouldn't run.

Ask them why they even attempted to replace the belt without the special
equipment for timing diesel pump? Checking and adjusting the timing on
those 5-cylinder engines is very difficult to get exactly right, and using
specialised equipment is absolutely essential to do the job properly. Or so
I've heard.

I can say that my belt snapt so i had to change it by my self. And if
you put it just a little bit wrong, the engine wont start.
So if the engine runs... the belttiming is right.
And the smoke... These engines smokes alot
