Measuring blocks, group 0, hit go, select basic settings then hit the tdi timing button, you should get a graph come up. There's a drop down menu to select your engine, see where the timing is on that, it should be between the middle and blue lines. Somewhere around 65/120 or so.

It does sound like it could be a fuel problem, other one could maybe be the turbo dumping oil into the exhaust.
