I replaced my intake and exhaust valves on my Subaru ej253. Word of advice; if it's your first time order a few extra seals. I hammed them in with a 10mm socket as suggested and you're supposed to stop when the ping noise changes tone as it means your new seal has seated. I over-hammered the first couple of exhaust seals and had to re-use old seals; I think oil is getting into the exhaust manifold as I am having some consumption and on one bank the manifold is starting to look oil-soaked. I'm going to have to pull the head and replace the exhaust seals on the one bank. Many many many hours of work (especially on a Subaru) when if I just had a few extra spare seals during my "learning phase" the extra work could have been prevented.

Well done mate! I own a 2011 Subaru Forester and only get the white smoke in the morning for about 50 seconds then it goes away. Some days I don't see the white smoke however, I got a feeling that my valve seals are either loss or needs replacement. What do you think? Is it difficult to do it myself at home ? Do I need special tools?

Problem solved! I replaced all the spark plugs due to a misfire and then used upper engine cleaner to remove the carbon build-up. During this procedure, I discovered that oil was leaking into the spark plug well. Additionally, upon removing the engine tray, I noticed some oil on the passenger side. As a result, I purchased genuine Subaru valve cover gasket sets and replaced both gaskets and spark plug tube seals. Hope this helps! 🙂

Nice work. Very good information and thanks in advance. May I ask, do you think stop leak products can stop oil leak in the valve seals and the head cover gasket? I have minor oil loss in my car's engine. No drip but I see oil stains as if sprayed over the body parts (as if sweat). I use lpg as we all know it wears out the valve seals earlier than petrol or gasoline engines. So what do you think about this? I surely know and am aware of it that even if it works, it is a temporary solution. So does it worth using these products? (I can find Liqui Moly which I surely trust the company because I use their oils with pleasure).

A black sparkplug tells you your running rich. to mutch oil is brown like a two stroke that burns a fuel oil mixture. Your car does not have to burn mutch oil it can be a small amount because huge oil consumption happens over a longer amount of time not in an instant. Remember oil lubricates and the seals have to be worn over a longer amount of time before oil passes trough in to the cilinders. You could also have sticky oil rings normally they come out due to pressure but carbon can stick them in place over time. Oil gets passed the rings and the car burns oil. Replacing can help but only gives a 20% difference overall. Depending on how mutch you like your car it could cost between 400-6000 or more dollars to solve this problem. ( some engines need both sides done V6 V8 V10 and so on) plus doing it wrong can cost you a new engine.

@autoinfogroup1629
@autoinfogroup1629 2 жыл бұрын
Its actually a single point sealing. Both on stem and head. The seal is pushed inside the port just like the transmission axle seal. The stem acts similar to the axle. Oil wont leak pass the seal body. Its the stem part which moves n always cause the wear and leak just like the axle seal.

Thanks for your reply.. I did have this problem as well. When I first started the car a puff of white smoke would come out or if I revved the engine above 3500 rpm it would do the same. I noticed the car would randomly hiccup every now and then until one day I was driving down the interstate and lost tons of power and had vibration. Very similar to when coil packs or ignition malfunctions. Tried to replace the known causes for misfire and just didn't help. Maybe burned valves? Code says p0300 and p0302

Yes Positive crankcase ventilation. Its a valve that passes gases which is leaked from piston rings to crankcase. This gases are fed to intake side so its been inhaled by the engine itself and burned off reducing emissions and keeping crank case pressure optimum.

I have a weird issue. When I drive and stop and go at a red light or stop sign I have zero smoke. No smoke on cold starts, but smoke only shows when I let it idle for 10-15 mins. I get a big puff on takeoff, then it clears up and goes back to nothing. That doesn't sound like valve seals or piston rings.

@@jayzon31 Nope I thought it was the spark plug tube seals but I fixed those and still get the smoke after a long idle. Everyone says piston rings would have it smoking all the time and valve stem seals would smoke on startup. I'm not replacing valve seals on a 17 year old car, so I added a bottle of Rislone ring seal treatment and I'm gonna see what that does. Basically as long I don't let it idle for over 10 mins, I'll never see any smoke.
