Now i have sort of same problem with pre. Working engine
I would say i have about 80% of total power
I have to push down gas almost to bottom for getting 3200rpm.
I have looked at this a couple of times because i was thinking about air leak between turbo and air intake but this all is ok
I found that there is a little diesel coming somewhere around the injector pump distrubution head. Feels wet in this area.
Tried to tighten all outgoing pipes but still same.
This injectionpump is the one that we changed the distrubution head 2 yeats ago. Could it be that there is wrong angle on outgoing pipes? Is it safe to bend these a little when open nut little?
Or do you know where the leak is, or how to find this

Fyi.
I had these injectors to local bosch workshop for new nozzles.
Also filters are new and air leaks in fuel system are checked, i did all this early in the season because i had rough idle and hard to start. This was fixed with new pre fuel pump and i found one fuel hose connection that was loose? Vibrations maybe?

No smoke
Only symptom is power loss and little rough idle

Re: volvo penta powerless
Maybe turn the smoke up a little.
No smoke could mean not enough power.
Also put the peddle to the floor and have someone see how far it moves the accel lever,...
make sure it hits the high RPM stop.
