i did adjust the valves tonight.
The guy who worked on the head replaced all 4 exhaust valves, checked the seats, replaced springs, and did all new seals.

The engine sounds really good when it runs. A lot better than before. It was making some valve noise hence my adjusting the valves.

I was wondering about the PCV valve. I dont really know much about them but it makes sense that if it is stuck open it would be sucking oil at idle (high vacuum). I could test it by disconnecting the vacuum hose to the intake and plugging the intake port and see what happens....
Of course i will sandblast the sparkplugs first before i re-install them...
