burning oil

my truck has started burning oil if the rings are shot shouldn't i be getting blow by through my valve cover wasn't sure thought i would ask

Welcome to the world of mazdas.LOL If the rings are bad you should have some blow by.

I have no blow buy but a good friend of mine checked it out and says it seems to be the valve seals

Sounds like it.Mine do the same thing.

now i just gotta get the time to replace the seals

AHh just let her smoke it will just do it again after you put in new seals the aluminum gets worn as well and still lets oil seep by. Mine has been smoking since i've bought it.

i changed all the gaskets in the head my truck ran good for 2 days then my truck after warm up would just start clouding out with smoke so i took off the head and had some oil on the 4 piston. you guys think its my rings because i just bought the ring an bearing kit

^yup^ but i would just go get the head and block machined, it wont work right if you just pop in the rings and bearings

yah got my head just reshaved it was only 3 quarters of a inch off an prolly hone the cylinders
