I have read that Volvo released a service bulletin instructing the removal of the flame trap. I can't verify that. I still keep mine in there anyway and make sure it is squeaky clean at all times. If your flame trap is clean, you don't have to worry about that one part causing an oil leak. Now, the breather box, hoses, etc. that's another story. The entire system has to be clean and free flowing. I'm no expert, but I have seen what a stopped up system can do and how much difference a clean system can make.
