My '83 245 won't start.. It has spark, fuel pump and pressure are good. new plugs, cap, rotor, fuel filter. My local mechanic looked at it and thinks probably compression but not being very familiar with volvos he couldn't say for sure. The symptoms prior to it's sleep was harder and harder starting and rough idle. It would normally run ok once it got going and during acceleration. I"m lost.
