Can anyone tell me where the flame trap is located on a 2000 S70 turbo? I have the ECM off right now as I was cleaning the throttle body (as the tech at the dealership suggested). I also have positive crankcase pressure. Looking under the intake manifold, I can see the oil separator box but can't tell where the trap is found.

Thanks,
Dave

    There is no flame trap on our S70 turbo's. Hope that answers your question. If the pcv hoses and the oil trap are dirty, clogged or creating postive pressure they need changing. It's quite a job as the intake manifold has to come off, but worth it. www.fcpgroton.com sells a kit that includes everything except the intake manifold gasket. If you don't see it on their site, give them a call. About $140 with shipping.
