Valve guide seals

The Stray

New member
Well at 216k miles my 96 sr has started to blow a fair bit of blue smoke. I figure its the seals considering the mileage and the symptoms. I've read a bit about them failing prematurely, however I have not seen any one do a walkthrough on replacing them. My FSM isn't really being much help here. Is it possible to do with hand tools in ones garage and is there a monty specific walkthrough that someone could direct me to?

P.S. I have the 3.5 engine.
 
I don't want to upset anyone, but this topic is widely covered on the Mitsubishi Tech Board at 4x4wire.com and is definitely worth your time to visit.
