hey i have a 89 crx dx and it smokes like mad when its idling and under WOT. Last week i replaced the head gasket and head bolts.
yesterday i did a compression test (unplug dizzy, unplug fuel pump, pulled plugs, WOT, turned engine over till the tester stopped going up) and i got 210 205 215 208. I poured a cap of oil in each cylinder and i got 10-12 psi more on each reading. Taking the factors into account what is the most likly source of my smoking?


Thanks in advance

 

Leaking grease from your CV joints......
I don't know but, it doesn't seem to be your chambers....200's = GOOD.

 

this isn't just a puff of smoke. It looks like my car is on fire....

 

ur compression seems goood but ur head may be leaking oil into the chambers and not the rings leaking tortexal had the same problem time to swap the head maybe or whole motor

 

Bad valve stem seals would have little to no effect on compression. Bad seals normally cause smoke at idle. I'm not sure about WOT though.
