If I were to take off/ replace my valve covers, head gasket and stuff, would putting it back on require me to know exactly how tight to screw it in, like a certain measurement or rating, or do I just tighten all that stuff as much as it can go??? Also I tend to burn oil reallly quickly, to where I have to put in a quart or more every month or so. I mean it is a 10 yr. old car, so it might be age, but I was wondering if you guys might know what else it is or if anyone has a similar problem. I'm thinking it might need new piston rings or a new seal somewhere in there, but I'm not sure. Give me your thoughts.
