How would I know if I need new Valve Seals? My car loses ALOT! of oil. You have no idea how much money I lose because of it. Every time I gas up (normally 350 miles) I have to add 2 qaurts of oil. Before I would drive for fun, like an hour a day. Which is like every 2 or 3 days I'd have to gas up. With Gas prices going up and me having to buy oil, plus trying to save up for college.
So I need to know what to look for in general. So far I've replaced the Radiater Flood (it was dark), Changed Oil, added Oil cleaner. I have some Engine Restore to put in and I'm going from a High mileage 10w30 oil to 20w50 oil. How much would I be looking at for the valve seals bought and installed (roughly guessing)? |
