I hope im not posting some over again. I've read all the faq's and searched the forum just in case, but im weary now..so i post.

Got a 98 2.4L Non-Turbo GS Spyder Singe Overhead Cam. No mods :(

Problems

1.) Blow-By .. Its nice, I can see the oil on the backend of the car
2.) Smoke/Blow-by when i accelerate quickly with high revs

I was thinking needing new rings, however, this is my first import car and I'd rather not mess anything up.

Thanks for help in advance
 
If you think it might be the rings pull some of the pluggs and check for oil and or do a compresion test both of these should be a good indication of weather or not you need new rings.
