valve steam seals
I just bought a 92 laser awd turbo. It does burn a bit of oil, and blow white smoke underboost due to the valve steam seals are starting to go. My question is, do you guys think that lucas oil stabilizer would help my problem out ? until i can get the cash to get the seals fixed.

valve stem seals go on the top and bottom of the valve guide to help keep oil out of combustion chamber
