blue smoke out of tailpipe at idle S90-V90

Well well .... I did the old "Redneck,/Italian/Polish/Mexican Tune-up" thingy (why offend just one ethnic group when you can offend many) ... we are now a smoke-free zone.

Drove the Interstate 50miles and back, kept the revs around 3500 (I tried 4500 but couldn't bear to hear the car complain). There is a can of Seafoam in the gas tank, just for insurance.

My online Volvo guru said it was most likely a stuck oil ring.
