I listened for seeping air from the instrument--all seemed well.

I'll redo today to be sure (ran out of time yesterday, so injectors are still out).

Where are those guys who recommend the oil squirt. It seems like a meaningful test, I just need to know how to intrepret the variations. And would the oil squirt reveal broken or stuck rings. For example, would the squirt of oil be able to seal a broken ring and boost the reading in the 100lb. hole?

btw, timing chain is new (boy was it way off - made huge improvement on running) and valves are freshly adjusted.

Like I said, I love the car, so if I can get it to where the smoke is at a minimum (I actually don't care about putting oil in, and 1qt/900 miles doesn't even sound that bad from what I hear), then I'd keep the car and do the head.

If I do the head, would problems with rings, cylinder walls, pistons be evident by looking down into the holes?
