Someone said something about holding a hand on the oil filler port to see if theres suction? there isnt and the PCV is working because if I remove the flame trap housing lots of smoke comes out as well as oil is being sucked into the inlet manifold I have double checked the PCV for blockages all the pipes are clear and new even the L shaped one going from the block to the seperator The engine has done 155k no blue smoke. Does anyone agree that the engine is toast or is there somewhere else I need to check like the oil pressure relief valve [if fitted] There is no oil residue on the plugs bores are dry Compressions are within the specifications set in the haynes manual Suggestions? For now I'm going to keep putting oil into the engine till after christmas then decide on a long term solution __________________ Previous Volvos:850 GLT 2.5 20V Auto Saloon Silver. 1997 850 T-5 Auto Estate Nautic Blue Chipped ECU, V70 TCV, Carbon Cased Filter, 17inch alloys, Rattling Engine masking the suspension rattles.
