The saga continues......

After I pulled the plugs and eitherized them, I stuck them under a heat gun, blew them off with dry air then the car started and ran for about 3 seconds then croaked again. I am becoming less perplexed.

I am starting to belive that the Volvo guy in Concord, NH is right about the flooding issue, it actually makes sense to me.

We are due for heat wave tonight, it's supposed to get up to near zero.

I pulled the plugs again and will leave them out overnight to help any excess fuel evaporate from the cylinders overnight. I am taking the plugs into the house and will keep them near the woodstove overnight to let them air out and try again in the a.m.

There may be some hope left before I resort to the C4 option. I'll make sure that I post a link to the 740 pictures after the C4 thing happens.
