when you replaced the plugs, did you check to see if they were burning oil?

Last year my 2001 4.4 started losing alot of power. Plugs showed the valve gaskets needed to be replaced. Forget doing just one side. My dealer tried getting away with that. A week later, he still had to do the other side. My point being, if you got the valve covers off, that's the toughest part, especially the driver's side. Just a thought.
