Ok i have a recent rebuilt motor... its got about 1600 miles on it!
Well i just put in a wide band and my car is running lean.. at idle it is around 15 and goes up to 17, and off the meter! at cruising its at around 14.2-15.2! At WOT its stops at 10.0 solid, dont in think it goes any further! WELL i know this is probably caused by the boost leak i have and cant find!!
BUT i checked my oil and its way above the full line and is really runny and smells of gas!!
Now i did a compression check about an hour ago and going from time belt to the CAS it read, (1)148-150-151 (did it three times) (2)160, (3)165, (4)165 Now i know specs is 150psi... but the i heard it could go down to 140psi with no real problems!(not sure how true this is)
But my main question is, how did this gas get into my oil if the compression is good??
im not really running rich, says my wideband, inless under WOT!
Just trying to figure this out!
thanks for the help in advance!
