What's up everyone! not gunna lie, i really like this community more than hatertech -_- BUT.. i have a problem. I'm losing coolant with no sign of leaks. So i did a compression test.
Normal:
1:225
2:215
3:235
4:235
W/ Oil:
1:250
2:250
3:260
4:265
Those are the numbers i got for a 90,000 mile OBDI GSR engine.
Engine is not overheating. No gunky liquid under the radiator nor any coolant mixed with the oil when i pull the dipstick. I did a valve adjustment before doing the compression test, pulled out the ecu for the compression test AND i pulled out all the spark plugs before even testing it as well. I think it's the head gasket but i wanna be sure it's the head gasket and spending tons of money just for something that doesn't fix the problem. People told me it's fine but my axleback exhaust is shooting out white smoke after being warmed up and revving the engine. And yes, i even tasted the clear liquid that was dripping from the exhaust lol. Tasted like nothing.
Can the white smoke be caused by an exhaust leak? Because there is liquid dripping from the mid pipe and axleback exhaust due to a stuck silencer i had to yank out. Please help guys. It's been almost a month since i haven't driven my car and it's killing me lol.
