A neighbor into Volvos recommends "44K" I think from BM or something like that. I've used it once before on a different volvo and don't recall a change, but then I was checking compression.

Oil consumtion is a bit higher than I liked, but not emergency level. Flame trap needs to be cleaned and that's was worried me. My plan has changed to reassembling the motor after replacing a few gaskets, the timing belt, and cleaning the flame trap. I'll probably take your advice, run a cleaner through it, and see how it retests later.

Thanks-
Dylan
