My Jabiru Cub seems to be blowing around a quart every ten hours. Does that seem high to anyone? It is right at the .1 liter per hour maximum. I will be doing a compression check this week. I tried a cold check a few weeks ago and it was blowing by the rings. I hope I don't have to top this engine at 175 hours. I did not break in this engine as I bought it from another pilots estate and I cannot confirm early break in proceedures.
