One of my friends offered to help me tackle this perpetual problem of my worn valve seals. I would never think about attempting this on my own, but he has a good deal of knowledge about this engine ( I bought the car off of him to begin with, he rebuilt the motor... but didn't change the seals... fail.) I did some searching and came up with a few things but not enough to really answer everything. Anyways, has anyone done this themselves? I would like to know what exactly I need to prepare for this, including the part number for the seals if anyone would be so kind as to source them. I'm 95% sure this is why i'm burning so much oil, not to mention my plugs get fouled within a few months.
I burn about 2 quarts a month and it is due time something is done about it. Thanks guys. PS: If someone is willing to help, I would drive to you in a heart beat ![]() -------------------- **If you play My Brute, joing the 6gc.net clan!**

My bad on the Pm, anyway it pretty much covered what I posted I had it all typed out then thought I hit the send before I went back into the garage to work on the ST, I needed to replace the engine due to a teenage driver and lack of checking oil would do it in a short time. I bought a JDM engine off ebay.
Check oil at every fill up or top off, and it'll run fine until your able to do something about it. |
