    Thumbs up Oil usage

    Hey, I have a 94 Sedan with a d16y1, about 220Km's.

    It's using a lot of oil, im guessing about a litre of oil for each tank of fuel.
    It's defuinitely not leaking, i have double checked this, it must be burning it as there is black soot over the back of my car, and smokes on hard accelerating.
    The oil im using is penrite 20w60.
    On startup it splutters a bit of black stuff onto the driveway.


    I originally thought it was the rings, but tested the compression and all 4 were 180 psi.

    I was then told it could be the valve stem seals, is there a way of checking this? Could it be anything else?
