Nissan Patrol S/wagon with a 2.8 litre diesel (late 1990's I think)

Afternoon all,
I haven't been doing much on here for a while what with work and dammm holidays taking up so much time.

My next door neighbour has just bought the family the above mentioned vehicle - looks great but he is very dissappointed with the engine - lacks any power and has to ride the clutch to get up his driveway. (I can idle up mine with the Trak Shak behind and mine is exactly the same angle as his - mind you my Nissan is a mighty 4.2TDi)

The vehicle has done 260000 k. He does not know if the injectors have ever been looked at - seems to blow lots of black smoke under acceleration - means too much fuel to me or perhaps just a new air filter.

Anyone out there with a 2.8 litre provide any help.

Cheers
