Default Did compression test not too sure what to think....

Did a compression test today. Warmed car up to operating temp and let it cool down. Pulled the plugs, #4 plug was covered in oil (not around the top, on the electrode it self) the top was clean and the spark plug cylinder was clean, plus i put new seals in a week ago.


#1 was 180 psi

#2 was 160 psi

#3 was 180 psi

# 4 was 180 psi

car does smoke alot, little less now that i put the stock chip in,
smoke right when vtec kicks in, mostly blue.

motor is a b16a2

what should i be thinking of repairing

valve seals
or piston rings?? maybe head gasket
combination

any ideas would help

yup leak it..either you rings or your valve seals more than likely its your rings..you change your Pcv valve when you changed the seals? your head gasket has nothing to do with your burning oil.your engine would overheat with a bad Hgasket...
