Yeah, I believe that means there's excessive blow-by in the engine. In which case, I'd say get another motor or rebuild that one. The way I look at it, you might as well get it overwith if you may need to do it later anyway. Check to make sure I'm right about the blow-by, though. It may be other things, also, that you could check without needing a rebuild, but I'm pretty sure about what I said. By the way, it could be valve seals in the head, or it could be your rings are bad. How long did the car sit before you got it?
