Hi.. I'm new to the forums, and I've got an 01 Prizm that's been burning oil for a good 20k - I had a problem driving down the highway the other day - felt like the engine was flooding - after a few miles the problem went away. I took it to a dealer and had them read the plugs & computer. Anyways, they said I've got oil blowing past the rings in all 4 cylinders.. The service manager said the rings in this engine can't be replaced and eliminate the oil blowby.. is he as full of snip as I think he is? I know the cylinders are typical cast iron sleeve types..
Also, what piston/ring kits does everyone reccomend, I don't push it hard or race or anything.. I just want a daily driver that's fun to drive. What breakin procedure?
Thanks guys
Brian
