remove plugs, kill power to the ecu and dist, turn over engine (using the starter) until guage on compression tester stops moving.

I do it with the engine somewhat warm still for best results.

Compression Test Results - 130 - 130 - 130 - 130
Damn that made me smile seeing those numbers , whether they mean something or not

I really would like to know how oil is getting all over my dam spark plug though

130, thats really really low, are you doing the lest with @ WOT? make sure you do it at WOT and make sure you don't have your injectors praying.

ITs an A6 with vitara pistons, yes the numbers will be low

I do think my injecotrs were spraying though, kinda smelt like fuel. All I did was pull the plugs and remove the ecu chip form my ecu, how do you disable them?

Well I went out for a drive, I noticed that the car seems to smoke when the oil pressure is higher.... maybe that would be obvious?

But, like I said, it only smokes on hard decel and idle, when the car warmed up and idle pressure was under 25psi (around 23) the car didnt smoke at all, I did quite a few stops frequently just to check it out, didnt smoke once.

Maybe I should just lower my oil pressure significantly for a temp fix until winter when I can tear the motor apart? Wonder what I could do to get the pressure way day, if its feasible
