Yip, my turn now. I just did the test and got the following results:
Cyl 1 150psi
Cyl 2 150 psi
Cyl 3 130 psi
Cyl 4 150
Cyl 3 wet test about 143 psi
Anything here to worry about or anything else i can do?
The car still seems to blow smoke (per another thread) at WOT but, not each and every time. I was thinking it could be turbo or worn rings maybe? Its used about 1/4 litre oil in the past month or 1000 miles or so, so not too excessive.
Turbo had no axial play BUT about 1mm radial play in it.
The smoke issue seems to be worse when its cold outside, like in the morning. On the way home yesterday evening it was fine! Really starting to piss me off now as ive tried everything i can think on...not even entirely sure what colour smoke is! Tail pipe is sooty and not oily and plugs are bone dry with a dark tea colour on their tips. All plugs look exactly the same too.
Please help before i do an insurance job on it!!!!!
Cheers,
Mike
