need to take off the head. and then take off the oil pan to access the lower part of the piston. i did this on a mazda b2200 to change one of the pistons. so it is possible, but i figure it would be tougher on the lude.

Originally posted by 4thGenReady2Go yeah, what he said, but you don't need to remove the engine. Why do you need to change them. burning oil?
yea its like this:
idle: no smoke
a little throttle from idle: puff of smoke then gone
rev again: nothing
let idle for a min: nothing
push gas a bit again: puff of smoke then gone
driving: no visable smoke
and i really don't use more oil then nessacary so i might look at the cat... hrmmm anyone have any ideas on this problem?
yeah, i mean, if you have the time and the inititiative, I say do it, you can bang out a few jobs while you're at it. Change rings, valve seals, do a check/adjust valve clearance, clean the head. And if you take pictures, you will be an allstar
