make sure you don't have the orignal PCV valve in the driver valve cover. GM came out with a updated PCV with out a valve in it, just an orifice. Suppose to help with the oil eatin. If that don't work, Go to the GM dealer and buy there TOP ENGINE CLEANER to clean the rings.
Get Engine warm, pull spart plugs and use a rubber hose and fill the cylinders with the cleaner and let sit a few hours. DISABLE coils by unpluggin them and spin motor over to spit out cleaner. use rags to catch the gunk. install plugs and drive the snot out of it. Will smoke a ton.
You can also run the engine and "pour" small amounts of cleaner into the pcv inlet on the intake to clean your valves.
Here at the dealer we have been putting in a set of pistons almost weekly due to stuck rings on 08 09 5.3 v8s.
GM has us do the top engine cleaner first and replace the driver side valve cover (PCV side) but it doesn't work.
They always come back and we slam pistons in em.
Here in Nebraska 4.8 5.3 v8s are cheap at the junk yards cause they don't sell alot of them. I have bought engines for less then 500 bucks with under 80k. Easy to drop in.
