Default 96 club car smoking issue

Hello all, I'm new to the cart community. I picked up my 1st cart, a stock 96 club car DS yesterday at an auction. Story is that is was known to smoke a little and had valve guides replaced and new belts and starter replaced in 2016. Cart does smoke quite a bit and shows a compression of 150 consistently. Seems to run ok, (drove home from auction!) just lots of blue smoke? Is it time for rings? any other thing I should look for? thanks for the help.

Welcome to BGW!

The first thing I would check is the oil level... Kawi FE engines tend to smoke if overfilled!

Mine is the same way, good compression but it's probably the oil ring.

Oil level is good, looking more and more like oil ring.

Yeah on mine I checked oil level, compression, air filter, oil in intake carb etc...
nothing, until I started reading more n more, someone posted the oil ring to me years back.
