burning more oil after heads
I put my stg II heads on back in jan. of 05. Changed my oil a couple of times since then, and everytime when I go to change I am about 2 quarts low. The motor normally burned about 1 quart between changes, but now its gotten worse. I have checked the motor and it looks like the bottom of the oil pan is lightly covered(not dripping) and when I try to trace it, it looks like its coming from the front somewhere, and then the trail just disappears. Any one have any suggestions. I will probably sit down and really take a look tomorrow when I have some time, but if anyone has advice that can save me some trouble, I appreciate it. thanks
