there is no unusuall amount of oil in the boost pipes or play in the shaft of the turbo.
and the valve seals are about 6 months old.
but i did find oil on the plug in cylinder 3 and all the rest are perfect.
any ideas?
when my rings were gone i use to get a misfire at idle but once i was over 2000rpm car seamed ok.The turbo was bringing compression up,but boost was blowing past the rings into the crank case Pressurizing the crank case so in turn blowing all my oil through the breather
. compression for each of my cylinders 1-100psi 2-130 3-130 4-130 plus number one plug was black and the rest were ok. so it does look like you have the Symptoms of worn rings, but i cant understand how your compression for all four cylinders are the same
