Thanks for the thoughts brian..

I did actually catch the cat by pass thread...my worry is ending up with a car that i HAVE to spend money replacing the cat on because of a botched bypass...at least now I can trade the car against something else without spending much money on it....

I just dont know what to do...if i could just find a dignostic measure that pointed at something in particular i would be inclined to go after it...but I am NOT going to spend money on a 'it might be this' type thought...

basically I am commign down to try the oil change combined with an overnight soak for the cylinders in redex (might help unstick a ring or 2) and do a oil cleaner product - these are all low cost items...

if that doesnt show a marked improvement, sell the damn thing and go buy something else..right now it wont be a volvo!

thanks for the thoughts..
