Hi I put a stock d16z6 in my car it's on 72k (no proof though) and its burning oil, I thought it might be valve stem seals as the engine was sitting over a 1 1/2 years without oil in it. It's fine below 4K rpm doesn't seem to burn much oil if any however when I hit vtec it usually puffs out a fair amount of smoke and it smells oily. I can't say exactly how much oil its used in the past 2 weeks but I'd say around 1/2 litre and I've done around 400 miles, mostly motorway driving at just under 4K rpm. Also if I'm in a high gear, low rpm and WOT it doesn't seem to puff out smoke
What does everyone think?
I will hopefully be doing a compression test tommow and I'll let you know the results.
Thanks
