i have a thread in EEC... if you want to know why i tore it down... go there... but needless to say... i tore it down...its a 5.0 out of a 1995 GTS... it started with the upper intake only... when i opened it i found a 1/32" film of carbon and oil... and it was in the lower too... so i pulled it... found 10 bent push rods... and caramelized oil all the way through the valley and heads... along with the combustion chamber...

the valve stem seals are melted into the runner... and i cant get the keepers out of the secondary hat on the intake valves... so i cant replace them...

i understand the push rods... overrev... and the caramelized oil in the valleys and top of the heads... overheating... but i dont understand why the oil is in the intake... or in the chamber... i guess it is getting from the intake into the chamber... but the walls of the cylinder are still clean...except where the rings dont go at the very top, and its not smoking at all... but it does burn a quart every 1000 mi...

mechanics say its the VALVE stem seals... but it should smoke then right? i think its the EGR... but there is no oil in the EGR... what do you say?
