Icon6 Holy smoke!

My 95 civic sat for year, 175,000 miles d16z6. it smokes and burns oil pretty good, i compression tested it and got 115psi on 3 cylinders and 110 on 1, what are the numbers supposed to be? Seems to have decent power for 175k . When the oil cap is off and engine running it throws oil everywhere is this normal?

any ideas or a goodplace to get a reasonably priced motor around northeastern pa please post.

Was there any oil on the sparkplugs when you removed them? If so, then it most likely needs a piston ring(s)

As far as compression goes numbers go seems like that one cylinder with the lower compression might be an issue
