I suspected it to be bad valve stems. The problem has gotton worse and worse. At first it started out as burning oil at startup and going away once the car warmed up. Like how it does when your valve stems go bad. Now the problem has gotton worse, and the car smokes quite a bit and it doesn't seem to go away. I suspect it to be bad valve stems.

I would rather get a reputable shop to diagnose the problem and have their word to back me up on what is wrong with the car. That way when I sell the car the buyer can rest assured that I'm not just talking out my ass sort on what is wrong, lol.

It's not that I have to wait for them, it's kindof the other way around. They have to wait for me because I can't get a ride until the 11th. I mean I have to drop my car off at their shop and have someone bring me back home. The 11th is the only time I can get a ride.
