Leakdown Test results, no sign of where burning oil is coming from Did a leakdown test on the motor, pulled all plugs, found TDC on each cyl. Depending on where I put the piston I got different results, I assume you take the highest number. Watched to make sure the values were closed.
Basically I got reading from 92-96psi (out of 100psi) on one side, other side got 89 94 and 99 and 99, I was shocked to see almost zero leak down, I didn't think that was possible. At anyrate, I burn a LOT of oil when letting off the gas, I have a catch can but the motor I believe is a 2001. I couldn't really tell if there was air leaking out of the bottom end when just listening, is there a way to actually tell if it's the rings or value seals?
I only burn oil when I let off that gas while in gear at higher RPM's. Any ideas? Thanks.
