wheel movement ???

--- Quote from: "wizard" ---Yep it sounds like a bush gone in the radius arm, thats what stops the axle from flopping about .
The only way to check the bushes is to take the arm off and have a look, if the bushes are ok maybe the bolts are shot.
Also have a look at the two rubber bushes on the rear of the radius arm.
RE smoke.
Check that the rubber diaphragm in the pump compensator hasn,t split.
This pic will point you in the right direction.
Make sure you put it back in, the same position it came out (mark it 1st)

then engine is tested on my drive, at a constant 2500,3000 rpm, compression is spot on, its gonna be fuel not oil thats causing it, and it doesnt do it all throught the rev range only in one position, but like i say, injectors have been tested and are ok, but the people that checked the injectors did say they are 2 stage injectors and they can only test the first stage, i am pretty sure its nothing to do with the turbo, although i wud like to be able to test without turbo working, is there any way ???

If you're not driving the vehicle and it's not a rolling road when you do the test then the turbo is not running. So doing the test on your driveway will only tested the engine without the turbo running. :wink:
I would still check the breather on the side of the head and when was the intercooler last cleaned?

breather ??? the pipe from block to head ????

Not to annoy anyone......but the Turbo is running all the time. You only notice it "kicking in" once it is spinning fast enough to create enough boost pressure to activate the compensator diaphagm.
As Budgie said this can only be done correctly on a rolling road or running it out on the open road.
