1990 Toyota Corolla 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Manual

I have a 1990 Toyota Corolla Seca AE90 and I have had a lot of oil on my #3 spark plug nad have been burning oil. I recently had the car "repaired" to fix that problem but now it's returned and worse, the car sounds like a lawn mower. No power and consuming fuel at an alarming rate.

What is the issue and how to fix it?

Hi there,

Can we get a wet & dry compression test on this cylinder, a wet test is done with about 1-2 tea spoons of oil in the cylinder to seal up the rings, this will show us if the problem is rings or valves, do the dry test first and if low do the wet test and post your findings here.
