The car was making good power, just poor mileage and less-than-stellar cold starts.

I hope this improves your cold starts. I have my 190 injectors getting new nozzles now and it was also having difficulties with cold starts. I would run the glow plugs longer than when the light went off and then I would get some smoke for a little while. They where noisy too. Really looking forward to getting them back.
