Hi all.
I've got what seems to be an increasing amount of oil coming into my air filter (1.6l 8v BAH engine with 220K on the clock).
Could it be blow-by? Compression tests done recently suggest that the piston rings are still in good order?

Re: Oil in air filter
Well if the compression test tells u that rings are in good order, then have a look at the breather box on the back bottom part of the block, its probably internally broken - common problem.
There is a thread around here explaining the breather box issue.

When a car tailgates me, i slow down - then floor it and give them a cloud of diesel smoke to choke on
