injection pump timing

Hey guys I haven't posted in like 5 months, whats goin on?

So i think one of the last posts I posted was on injection pump timing. I have a semi bad smoke problem at all RPMs, and someone told me it was more than likely my injection timing being a little retarted. So it was advised that I try to advance the timing by about 1/8, right? Correct me if I'm wrong. Well, I've been trying to do so, but I can't get the injection pump to move. I loosened all the bolts on the pump (or all that I could find) but it still won't budge. I'm refraining from removing the high press. fuel lines if I can at all help it. Can someone give me any advice? I think this problem needs fixed...my friends call me "Smokey" ! THANKS!
