Compression or leak down results?

>Just finished putting together a 140 for a fewllow club member.   Nothing
special but all new parts and careful attentiuon to all aspects.  It
started instantly and ran fine for awhile. After a period of fast idle, the
oil was changed and the car driven.  Speed did not exceed 45 and went up
and down through the gears. After a couple of days, the passenger side
started blowing clouds of whilte smoke.  Carbs on that side not
excesssively wet.and car idles. With air cleaner removed, distinct puffs of
blow by visable.  Disconnecting #3 spark plug wire results in a dramtic
speed up of the engine.  Tried a valve adjustment but no change.  Any
ideas?  Thanks in advance.
