I pulled off a valve spring and verified the valve seals are good and the newer version.
The other potential source of
oil consumption was the intake gaskets. I bought a new set of gaskets and pulled the intake.
Viola, the gaskets were ragged at the bottom and there was obviously
oil getting past them!
All buttoned up now have to wait for the China wall sealant to dry.
Hope this solves the
oil consumption.
