Hey guys I have a 95 Civic with a b16a. Its burning oil. i did a compression test with mahciv today and got 190 185 175 180. I believe perfect is 184; not sure. When driving at low RPMS theres no smoke, but up at and near VTEC I can see almost a cloud of smoke behind me. There is a check engine light that comes on but I don't know how to tell waht it is; dont know if its related. Im guessing its either the valve seals, piston rings, or headgasket. No clue which it is

sounds like valve seals.

TurboCiv

valve seals

nonvtec

Jump the service pin near the ecu and check the code for us. Should have asked someone to do this at the install.

very possible... valve seals

or your valves could be floating... but the seals are the cheapest/first thing i would try

run a leakdown test to determine where the problem is.
sears has one for 25-45. i forget the exact price.
