So it could have been milege. As far as valve wear, I was thinking that old oil loses its lubricating ability and therefore would contribute to valve guide wear. You did not specify valve seat or guide in your previous post. Old oil might even be less effective at removing heat, but that's probably relatively trivial or non-existent; just speculating.Originally posted by jason_ View PostI dunno milage .

I wasn't aware oil changes improve valve face and valve seat performance. Noted!90 Festy (Larry)--B6M (Matt D. modified B6 head), header, 5-speed, Capri XR2 front brakes, many other little mods

BPs have forged crankshafts.
