COMPRESSION TEST NUMBERS SINCE IM BURNING OIL!!!

i dont know the cylinder numbers yet, im using 1-2-3-4 fromt left to right.. but anyways. in that order my numbers are...

165 - 135 - 145 - 125.

the 165 seems good and 145 can pass by the 135 and 125 worries me... since its not cylinders next to each other, i can rule out headgasket i think...

also, there is oil on the spark plug threads, and really bad on the second cylinder, and there was oil on the threads of the compression tester when i pulled it out...

rings? valve stem seals? help!
 
If you have oil on the spark plug threads maybe the gromets on the valve cover need to be change.

If you want to know if it's your ring or your valve seal just put a bit of oil in the cylinder with lower compression and retest it.

If the compression goes up it's your ring and if it doesn't it's your valve seal
