My baby's going under the knife!

It's time to do the valve seals. I got my tools coming in this week. Just waiting to order seals. Question: Should I order the felpro set from auto zone thats a universal fit for both intake and exhaust? I tried Rockauto and theyre charging double shipping caused intake and exhaust are getting shipped from two different warehouses. Any other suggestions?

Any advice from the gurus to help me out?

99TL 254K and many more to go

Were you having low compression, or just maintenance?

Running, idle issues. Like its missing. Oil on plug in cylinder 6. Starts very poorly first thing in the morning like I have to flood the cylinders to get it started. Dont have to when warm. Needed valve adjustment anyways.
