so i have been checking my oil daily and i am losing oil. well i cant quite figure it out? i checked everything i could think of and finally gave up andtook it into a buddies shop. he had his "guru" go through and he found no leaks but that my PCV valve was stickin and that could result in my loss of oil. what do you guys think? i dont know much about the PCV valve or its jobs... but from what i gathered it helps with oil pressure to the top end? any thoughts owuld be appreciated! thanks in advance

Yes, a bad PCV valve will allow oil to enter into your intake manifold and burn up.

ok. so if i replace the PCV valve will that solve my problem or since its been leaking... do i have other problems?

Replacing it will stop the oil from entering your intake manifold. You said you had no leaks. Next thing to do would be to perform a compression and leak down test to see if your piston rings and valve seals are still good.
