hey guys, I need help again.. My motor keeps on cutting off right at about 5rpm, and on days were it working okay, the car doesn't start to pull until 7rpm.. I get white smoke at high rpm from first the second gear and in neutral when I rev it up to about 5rpm... please tell me what wrong?? mods, dc sport 4 to 1 header, intake, exhaust, no cat, and jun sprockets (at stock setting).. Thanks in advance!!

 

7 rpms is really low.....

 

i just did a compression test and it was 180 across.. spark plug for cylinder two was black, oil black.. i know for sure that oil is leaking somewhere from cylinder two.. my only problem is could it be a bad piston ring or valve ring?? please help..

 

If the compression test was 180 across...I don't think it would be the piston ring. White smoke...head gasket leak? Getting coolant into your cylinder... Check your coolant to see if it is changing colors..

Was the engine cold when you did the compression test? 200 is normal, so if it was cold, that could be pretty normal.
