I was wrong I am still burning oil. I have decided to replace the valve stem seals myself. I understand that the cam is in the center and the valves are operated by rockers. I was told that all I would have to do is loosen the rocker nut to access the spring. Do the valves need to be adjusted if I do this? The rest sounds pretty simple. I have a small spring compresser that you compress the spring with then strike with a hammer to release the keepers. Will this work like it does on a small block chevy? Anything else I should be looking for? Cam cover seal looks good still, its not leaking.
