I'll do some further testing to see if its for sure the valve seals....I'll do the second gear accelerate and coast thing tomorrow to see if I get blue exhaust....
Tomorrow I am going to pull the plugs again to have a look and also I'm replacing the distributor cap/rotor/plastic shield....and I will test the wires for proper resistance.
If it does need valve seals then it may be headed to Betten!
