Mend Citroen Berlingo 2001 Problem Diesel Engine Fuel

what is the problem with my citroen berlingo diesel engine?

after replacement of the fuel filters my engine does not start as it used to.After standing for a few hours I have to try and start it many times before it catches.Sometimes it catches but seems to run on less than all cylinders.after switching off and restarting most times i get back to all cylinders working.when I have the problem starting I get thick smoke from the exhaust.The vehicle is a Citroen berlingo model 2001

it sounds possibly like u have a faulty fuel primer this would cause fuel to flow back when left for periods of time overnight for example u could try putting a non return valve in just before the filter assembly to stop this thereabout 10 quid and its worth a try
