I bought a 94 lx with a blown motor a month ago. I swapped in a b7 that my friend boosted for 6 das before swapping over to ls. Well I gave the car to my stepsister so she can drive her2 year old around, but I told her to have a mechanic look over the car since Im not exaclty an ace mechanic myself... always forget something. Anyway, she called me last night at 9, she was driving her bf home and had her 2 yr old in the car and it died. I checked the oil, none, it cranked, but wouldnt start. I went down the street, got 4 qts of oil and topped it off. I brought atank of gas to make sure it wasnt out of gas, poured some in, still wouldnt start. I cracked the fuel line, gas squirted out, so it had fuel pressure. I went home, grabbed a spare dizzy, slapped it on and it started right up. She only had the car 1 day and it burned 4 quarts of oil. She said it was stalling all day and smoking, but never overheated. I drove it home, my dad followed, he called me and said oil was burning off like no tomorrow. I got home, pulled it in the garage and noticed oil all over the firewall and back of the block like it was squirting out under pressure. I checked to makesure I didnt leave the oil feed for the turbo on, cecked the pressure sensor it as tight, filter was tight. I noticed the oil on the firewall/block/exhaust was **** colored and looked like it was wet. I check the oil, it was clear, coolant looks a little dark. Im thinkin blown headgasket, but why would the oil squirt all over the place. Maybe the gasket blew around and oil squirter? Im stumped and pissed off at this point. Theres **** oil all over filter/sensor/crank case breather. I was thinking by some slim chance the breather i cracked? But Idont think oil is pressurized in there to make it squirt.

is the filter in correctly?

make sure there isnt 2 gaskets on the oil filter sometimes teh old gaskets stays on the block seen it a million times.

what type of engine is it? If I were you, i would invest in a new head gasket and install it (fairly simple)...Change the oil and replace the oil filter... Replace the PCV valve...Sometimes if your pcv valve is bad...you can suck oil from your crank case through your crank case ventalator and it gets ingested into your throttle body and then is burned which would partly explain why you are shooting black smoke...This might not be the WHOLE case because if it were there is a good chance that your car would have problems with the throttle position sensor (TPS) or the Idle air control valve (IACV) which would cause the car to have trouble idleing and possible stall it. Take off ur intake/filter and check ur throttle body for oil!

or valve seals possibly??? its happened to me before!

Does this engine have an oil cooler addapter between the block and the filter poss ruptured oil line/ loose conection there

the oil is squirting out under pressure and landng on the exhaust causing it to burn.
