Yes, turbo diesel... Most 940's in Europe are diesels... All the way till 1998...

I'd try the cleaner, it's the cheapest potential cure you can have...

I am not a diesel mechanic but sounds like timing or fuel delivery...I would think it has something to do with your injector pump....either timing is off or it's passage ways are clogged.
