Where did the compression go? S70 1998

Haven't seen this on my 850, but my VW 1.8 turbo will do this. I call it something simpler, the engine basically floods. When it happened on my VW it took me a week of wracking my brain to figure it out, finally got a tip from a pal with the same issue. These modern fuel injected computer controlled engines still get a lot of gas on cold start, a quick shutdown can cause a no restart. I always make sure my VW (and others) run to get off cold start to avoid the issue.
