wait no thats not what i meant! If you wanna find out if you have something wrong with the engine internally do a leakdown test first. If you are getting a high percentage when the engine is warm then you know there is something wrong. I'd say anything about 15% leakage when warm is bad, keeping in mind this is a street car and all.

Bad valve? Massive oil consumption, loss of power, strange engine note.
Midnight in a Perfect World on Amazon or order anywhere. The first book in a quartet chronicling the rise of a man from angry criminal to philanthropist. Midnight... is a distopic noirish novel featuring 'Duchess', a modified 1990 Subaru Legacy wagon.
