I had a previous post about crank seal but wanted to start a new one on possibly related subject....
O360, 300smoh. Crank seal won’t hold. High oil burn, 5hr/qt.
Mechanic said compressions were good.
I’ve read on other forums where a broke or stuck oil ring will cause high crankcase pressure. But is it possible to have good compression and still have a stuck or broke oil ring. I’m thinking it’s possibly causing the crank seal issues as well as the increased oil use.
The crankcase-pressure has not yet been tested.
Thx
