    Default cold start smoke and poor running engine

    Hello , The vec (2.0 dti 2004) is doing weird on me .
    When cold start , she smokes white and the engine runs poor
    looks like unburned diesel .
    also on lower revs the engine vibrates and some of the power is gone.
    Glowplugs are new and checked ; they work fine.
    Maf sensor is replaced . no check engine light. no fault codes.

    I was wondering if anybody knows if there's a cranckshaft sensor on these.and if there is , where it is ? i can't find any

    Thanks in advance
