Calm Before the Storm??
Calm Before the Storm?? alright, well as many of you guys know i had a oil consumption problem as well as some lower compression not to long ago. Well much to my amazement and disbelief the car has 100% stopped eating oil and has completely stopped leaving a cloud of doom behind it. plugs are clearing up nicely and look much much better than they looked when it was eating oil.
the only changes i can think of is i ran 2 cans of seafoam through the tank about 5 tanks of gas ago, and i stopped using german castrol. Im now using penzoil platinum full synthetic (good oil and much cheaper to replace when it was burning it)
so my question is this.... WTF is going on? do things ever "fix" themselves? im thinking something has got to be up. Any chance a valve seal was having issues and "fixed" itself?

If it had sat for a while I may think that some of the rings had stuck; but if you've been driving it the whole time, I don't know. Maybe still possible it was the rings?
