[QUOTE="tropos_net, post: 444421, member: 2595"] you may find some luck with STP stop leak. it is supposed to revive old shrunken seals (inclusive of valve seals). sometimes a few shots of that is needed to see impact. it may offer something but the propoer way is of course, top overhaul. overall if you can get to do 1 ltr per 5000km run oil top up, it should be ok with a high mileage engine. never run the engine below the min mark....it can throw a rod thru.
