Re: This looks bad! Tell me the ugly truth. White smoke + oil . . .

Yes, the cylinders were wet with oil, so essentially a wet compression test. Cylinder #2 was the only spark plug that wasn’t wet with oil, so the lower reading makes sense because it wasn’t wet (as wet).

Engine diagnostics is not intuitive to me.

Do I have rings that aren’t sealing?
Any reason to do a leak down test?
