It looks like your #2 cyl has oil in it.

Brad.




Just kidding - to get that much unburned oil in the cylinder you
must have faulty rings or very poorly seating valves and valve
seals. Not much other way to get oil in the cylinder. I would
first start with the valves and give them a very close visual
inspection and slowly disassemble the intake valve and check for
any possible leak. If you don't find one it will more than
likely be in your rings on the piston.

good luck-
Brad.

Bill,
My first gut instinct is that you've blown your rings in that jug.
I had a BMW that looked like that and when I yanked out the cylinder in
question, the rings all fell out in tiny pieces. Despite the fact that
all the rings were broken in several places, there was no visible
scarring of the cylinder walls. I re-ringed it and gently honed the
jugsnas well as sticking in new main & rod bearings (just in case) and
drove that motor for another 150,000 miles before it finally blew (and
we're talking BLEW).

Cheers,
- Jeff G

Well the funny thing is is I got the same results on a cold engine 150 psi
which is what they told me.
