Headgasket Job Complete Thanks to all but still not right 700

Hello all,

1989 Volvo 740 124,000 Rex Thanks for all your help in recent posts I did my headgasket and I think I did a good job, compression is great but now there are still some issues I must tackle. Problem #1 Seems like fuel is getting in the crankcase. Thinning the oil and seeping throught the cover, I smell the fuel pretty good, I already got a new FPR and ECT what next?? Leaky injectors or 02 sensor I guess?? Problem #2 Not much power up hills. Now would any advise bringing it to a Volvo dealer for diagnosis on the computer or Is it a waste of money?

Thanks, John
