New compression test cylinder 1= 160 dry
2= 154 dry
3= 138 dry 150 wet
4= 130 dry 170 wet
5= 120 dry 165 wet
Added 2 tablespoons of Marvel Mystery Oil to each cylinder. Let sit overnight and when I burnt off the Mystery oil the scene was reminiscent of all of us running behind the mosquito truck fogger in those precious days of youth!

Will clean out the PCV tomorrow. Klaus I use the term flame trap interchangeably
with the term PCV oil trap. It is my understanding the 1998 Volvo Base S70 has no Flame trap thus no screen to remove. I do however intend to clean the existing oil trap and hose that runs from near cylinder 1 to the trap with water and soap. Please comment on the cylinder pressures and reusing the existing parts and intake manifold gasket. Blake
