Here it is. I just replaced my valve stem seals and when I had the compressed air hooked up to all of the cylinders to keep the valves from falling in the cylinder, i kept hearing the oil in the motor churning and splashing loudly. I then did a compresssion test and all four are running at 152 psi. the only thing i could think of is a blown head gasket and the air leaking into the oil, but i just replaced that about 6 months ago and the compression tests kind of ruled that out. I was just wondering why this would be and if i should be worried about it

thanx
 
did you hook up the compressed air to the inlet of the turbo? if so, you could be blowing air past the turbo seals and through the turbo drain line.
