Hunty Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 My starlet has being letting out blue smoke quite a lot so I've done a compression test today and the results were 170 120 170 170 could this be the piston rings? Thanks Brad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike@TD.co.uk Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Doesn't sound too great, first instinct with those readings would be ringland damage. Cheers Mike JonesTuning Developments Ltd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danza V Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Doesnt sound good or look good on the cylinder 2 .. ONly really know once you have it apart but could be rings or the lands as above Quote Link to post Share on other sites

starletburkie Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 ringlands i would say as the rings dont go like that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve-gers Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 yeah rings would tend to usually wear fairly evenly across the cylinders although they could have been dodgy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
