Was better this morning. Am also going to change the o2 sensor tonight, as she was consuming oil at about a quart every 250 miles before the work. I can tell from the exhaust that the valve stem seals made a world of difference. No black spot on the floor after idling 10 minutes. Will driving some help the lifters settle back in?
