Default Compression Test Results

My 86 CRX HF has lots of white smoke in the exhaust @3000+ rpm. I ran a compression test and here are my results.

Dry:
#1 - 210
#2 - 215
#3 - 215
#4 - 218

Wet:
#1 - 215
#2 - 220
#3 - 215
#4 - 222

Anyone have any ideas of what the problem may be?

white smoke is coolant, no?

I thought white smoke means that you are running lean. You are not getting enough gas to the carb or possibly your injectors may be clogged? Check your plugs and see what they look like. If I remember correctly black sooty plugs mean you are running rich and brown means you are running lean
