Zapper Report post Posted September 17, 2011 Looks like the seals went on the turbos. Not too bad. A leak down test was performed about a month ago at ZR and reviled an average 25% loss and a lot of oil on top of the pistons. The ends of the spark plugs were burnt off even some of the porcelain was gone, she was running very very hot in there. Changed the plugs and drove it home from Calgary (700kms). But by the time I got home, the car was running very poorly, checked the plugs and again the tips of the plugs were burnt off. I changed the plugs, ran the car for the last couple of weeks then yesterday I decided to punch it a little and it started to run the worst it ever did. Limped the car home and i changed the plugs again then started it, well as you see it is not a simple case of changing plugs this time. I knew is was coming but was hoping to drive it for the rest of the season. I guess now it will be parked until it is time to go for the rebuild During this short driving season I should mention that I use approximately 50 liters of oil for about 5000 kms lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading the plugs can tell you a lot about what the car is doing, but its screaming to me that this thing is running lean! One thing to be careful of, oil in the combustion chamber makes your octane rating plummet and will cause detonation even in completely stock cars. If it's burning 1/10 that much oil you really should be looking for the root cause of the problem. If you want just for kicks, post a picture of one of the torched sparkplugs, specifically the tip.
