left the engine running for a while (maybe 20 minutes or so) to test the aux-air valve (which seems to be broken, doesn't close completely) and once the engine was hot, it started to spit oil out of the exhaust.
little spreckles on the floor. quite a few.

what's wrong ??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Oil is into the combustion chamber and not burning off, thus being forced by the exhaust valve. Or, it is seeping through the guide. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I dont know if a valve adjust will fix that, I would think it would definitly improve things though. How many miles are on your heads?
