Hi idle speed and hunting, running too rich or lean, excessive fuel consuption, blowing smoke 900 1993

Hi guys,

My lovely 940 SE with the B230FT engine is playing up real bad :(
Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Symptoms are high idle speed and hunting, running too rich or lean, difficult to start off especially uphill without stalling, excessive fuel consuption, blowing smoke during idle, Lamda light is on and comes on a few seconds after resetting the computer. Drives ok when cold and warm just after starting the engine, but after a few seconds is back to no good.
The turbo and all the pipes following foul up with oil.

Many thanks,

Chris
