A used one will have some free play, I would expect 20mm, once that is taken up you should feel the springs compressing. Yours sounds typical for a 60k-100k one
I dont know if a new one is completely free of play though.
Shouldnt be noisy though...that sounds like a broken spring. Is it off a petrol or diseasle?

Is the petrol and diesel the same, I know the diesel crank sensor picks up off the flywheel.
