Another question to ask - can anyone offer any advice relating to refitting the injectors? They have been cleaned, and new seals fitted. Is it necessary to use an injector seat cutting tool? The car has covered just over 100k, and is 6 years old. When looking down the wells they appear relatively clean, so I wondered if hoovering out would be sufficient? The injectors were all functioning correctly, with no evidence that they were not sealed correctly before I removed them.
Many thanks.

After a careful inspection of the injector wells, I decided they looked in good enough condition not to worry with seat cutting. Rather than mess around with a hoover, I cleaned the wells with rag wrapped round a rod and carb cleaner fluid.
Thankfully everything went together ok, and I finished the job today. It took a couple of goes on the starter to get the diesel flowing again, but the car started and runs fine. Thanks for the help along the way, and the torque settings - very much appreciated.
