burning oil, d16y8 mini me. how should i test it?
so i am now burning a bit more oil than before. about 1.7 quarts between changing oil intervals of 3k miles.
i know it must be either the valve seals and/or piston rings or at least im assuming im right.
is there a way to test these to make sure im on the right track?
i know fixing them both is cheap but it will take some time which im kinda limited on. i dont mind fixing both if its needed but if im just doing them and only one is needed than im wasting time i dont have.
so do you guys know what i need to do?
video on a snap on tool that helps with removing the keepers and reinstalls them very easily.
