Re: Say it ain't so: Wet plug on 454

Ha - that's the main reason I'm paying it any mind from such a small indicator, I'd like to keep it that way. Near as I recall, before the leaks got worse (valve seals have shown signs since I got it in '07) it would take 1,200-1,500 mi. to use a quart. I'll run the new plugs a little and check it again, then maybe do a compression check just for good measure - never done one.
