Good day nairalanders, please what could be the cause of this problem, I recently noticed, the oil shorts too, pls help out, thanks

Probably your piston rings are gone, which causes an oil leak into the combustion chamber.

Do you experience loss in power especially during hill climb?

Change your piston rings, also check your valves ( both intake and exhaust) to ensure they are ground properly for tight fit. lastly you might as well replace your top gasket to be sure there are no vacuum leaks from there as well.

OK bro, thanks a lot, the car is a honda bulldog I've asked some mechanics here they all are insisting on new engine that its hard to fix that engine, that if its ringed it won't last, please is this true?

Safer to buy an engine without any accessories no (intake,alternator,power steering pump.starter motor) just head and block. Should cost less than 50k
