everybodies guessin' Have a '86 volvo that started missing at 200K so took it to a shop and the engine is bad. Asked him how he knew that. Well the compression is this on #1 this on #2 this on #3 and this on #4; nmbers 3 & 4 were low OK how do you know it's not valves he had shot oil in the cylinders and the compression didn't change.

Talked to the wife, we rebuilt it ourselves over ayears time and included updating other stuff on the car like springs, shocks, wheels and tires spent a total of $4K and it is her daily driver for the past 10 years.
