Ok so what would acceptable blow by be for a 22re? I pulled my oil cap while running and it doesn't seem any more or less blows out than any other 22r or re does. As well as what is an acceptable amount of oil residue inside the intake manifold I peeked inside and I'd say it's lightly moist but not soaked is this a problem . I need to run a few tests but don't have the mo ey or resources at the moment. I'm losing oil from either a leak or burning but oil loss is funky and intermittent but when it gets low it gets low fast. I'm not blowing smoke and the exhaust doesn't smell like burning oil I'm just at a loss please help it would be greatly appreciated. The engine is a 1985 22re with a out 6k to 10 k on it

Puddle, blow-by is generally caused by combustion pressure getting by the rings and pressurizing the oil pan, if you take the oil cap off with the engine running the timing chain and gear will throw oil out..

I'm using an OBDI reader. Found out last year that this 94 has that system
