It also looks like you have lots of sludge/heat/bad oil.....

Thanks guys. Yes 2000 (forgot to post year)
Yes - actually sounds fantastic. I have the Haynes manual which is not too bad for getting me into it - it should have the valve specs.
Car is an oil sow but does not leak. Ash on plugs pretty heavy after replacing with Denso Iridium plugs maybe 10k ago. No smoke just eats it.
However, the MAIN issue is that the car is my son-at-college's car. As he gets near graduation he is home infrequently and I can't check it out. It has eaten oil pretty fast over the 30k miles and he does not stay on top of it. I have added two quarts (holds maybe 4 1/2) a couple of times which results in the heat and crap.
