Andy - I'm not real familiar with the 706 but 250-300 hours on a gas engine with new pistons and sleeves doesn't sound like alot of hours to be burning that much oil. If one set of rings went bad you'd be fouling the plug in that one cylinder but sounds like all of your plugs were fouling and I doubt all six sets of rings went bad at the same time. My suspicion is your problem is in the head. Perhaps bad valve guides (don't know if the 706 uses valve seals). An engine will burn a surprising amount of oil from the top end - had an old Harley that went thru a quart every 1000 miles from the worn valve guides (no seals). Another thought, if the engine wasn't properly broke in when it last had new pistons and sleeves installed that can cause an engine to burn oil prematurely but you likely would have noticed it burning oil all along.
