Hi all some of you might not no That Im running the 2 litre in my Si,

I've just recently had it rebuilt and the it's using oil like no bodies business,

I've rebuilt her myself and got the engine shop to put the rings on the pistons and hone the block out and order the right size rings in.

The rings are up the right way and the cylinder block has been honed out and when I fitted the pistons in I made sure that the rings were staggered to reduce Blowby, there is no blue smoke coming-out tof the exhaust, could it be the pcv valve not working properly?

Any comments would be greatful thanks, Sean

Hiya mate I don't have no oil what so ever from the engine. All pipes and clips and everything is tight and new. I don't even have any bluey colour smoke coming from the engine from anywhere from idle to 6,000 rpm. This has me stumped big time. Rebuilt loads of engines before. Ut never had this prob though,

my 1.6 drinks oil as well, never done a rebuild on it but as far as i can see theres no leak, no oil burning off and no oil splattered anywhere. these zetecs must hide it somewhere.
sorry this isnt any actual advise but wanted to tell you you werent alone :thumbsup:
