  1. Injector testing is a great idea. Did you ever give it a try? I'd also pull the hose on the top of your intercool and see if there is any oil in it. If so, it could just be burning oil from the intercooler. You may have a failing turbo or a bad engine breather.
  2. Jinx, I'm just north of you in Uganda with a 94 300TDI. I recently had a similar issue. Is it possible that you've got an airlock? These 300TDI are famous for them around here. Here's how I solved my problem (won't cost you a centavo, but your pride will be shot). 1. Unscrew the plugs on radiator and thermostat housing (if you haven't already changed these to brass ones, do it! Those plastic bits are so easy crack). 2. Fill the radiator full and cap it off. 3. Fill the thermostat housing full, but don't cap. 4. Have someone open the cap on the overflow tank, put their mouth on the hole and blow, creating pressure (this is the bit where your pride will be hurt) 5. Someone else can use the palm of his left hand and cover the thermostat housing hole, while simultaneously squeezing the lower hose coming from the radiator (all the while, someone should be blowing in to the overflow tank). 6. You should hear air bubbles gurgling around when you squeeze. After squeezing, remove your hand from the housing and allow the bubbles to escape. 7. Repeat 4-6 until all the air is out. Before you do any of this, get rid of that loop and repair the heater connection. Those loops are usually the cause of this problem.
