Dean,
Checked the codes. All air intake issues.
Oil - Mobile 1 or Castrol Syn. 10W-40, Premium gas.
plugs - 2 mo. ago - light brown. will check again this weekend.
Compression 200psi+ on all 4 cylinders last year. Will check again with leak down test.
No oil in the coolant
No leaks. pulled valve cover and oil pan a year ago. No issues.
She's been treated well since I bought her at 68k. I'll try the Techron. Thanks.
Jimmy,
If it is the pistons. It's sad. My 900t uses a little oil at 350k. And that through the turbo. The real question is do I get rid of it or fix it.
New rings, rebuild head and replace bearings? Used engine?
