The oil in this case acts like an extra oil ring, it seals the top ring allowing the down stroke to draw in the charge, then allows compression. You REALLY need to do a compression test of your motor. How badly was the engine overheated before the HG change?, was there any scoring in the cylinder bores? The fact that it runs well while running is a good sign. Numbers though, gotta have them numbers!
Current Volvos:
1998 V70 T5, 112k sat 5 years, still in mechanical coma (finally at the top of the pile )
2004 XC90 T6 AWD: 186k, 60 on transaxle ( traded in )
1998 POS70 N/A: DD/training aid, 236k but really about 240k, I think...ABS module( passed on to son who sold it)
