That is super low it was time for new rings along time ago. I would say under 150-170 its time for new rings. and re-build.

isnt 185 the norm for a d16z6?? but anyways the guy that got 110 or 90...maybe you did the compression test wrong. you have to hold it at WOT and crank for five seconds. my motor has 260,xxx and the lowest i got was 140

Wide open throttle. Makes a difference in the numbers:

if you are finding the oil on the threads or in that area i would bet your oil on plug issue is the pedistal (sp?) gasket. have them replaced. should be good to go
