Did a compression test on my D15b7 because it is smoking white smoke slightly. Here are the results:

cyl 1- 153
cyl 2- 155
cyl 3- 160
cyl 4- 160

Just wondering if these numbers are good, bad, or what. any feedback would be appreciated.

 

anyone?

 

They are all within 10 points of eachother. looks great.

white smoke could be coolant in the combustion chamber, or you may need a valve job.

 

yea thats what i figured. I've got a v-tec d16 head that im gonna do the mini me head swap with. Should take care of the problem.

 

Bad head gasket can cause smoking. White smoke is from coolent get in the combustin chamber. If you do the head swop, get the head resurfis and get new head gasket.

 

oh cool, get the head pressure checked, milled a little bit if needed and checked for straightness, a new head gasket and If that was your problem then you are good too go. I good days work.

so valve job can stop the white smoke?

 

thanks, didnt think about that. It would help with black smoke.
