A little more info I've come across. Yellow dot pumps were on 1980 1.5l 
engines only. Setting was 1.15mm

A couple of years into the 1.6 intro, pumps were [in America] reset from 
0.88, to 0.98 to compensate for cetane change issues. No mention of odd 
injector pressures other than 125 to 140bar.
No mention of higher injector pressure of 155  for the first of the  TD 
setups either, as of  1983:-
