It seems I have not been burning as much oil as before. I am little worried, and I was wondering if anyone knows how to determine how much oil should be used.

Over the years I have heard so many different opinions, all probably changing depending on year, and ecu flash.

Any Input?

Should I just go to the premix thread and start reading?

the more granny style u drive, the less oil it burns.

 

premix and get the accessport with mm's maps.

get sohn adapter too if you want to go all out.

 

I burn about 1 quart between oil changes (3000 miles or so)

 

yeah beat the hell out of it and u will suck it down but just drving arond town or alot of highway use will barely use any i moved for pa to fl about 1500 miles and did not have to add any oil that was cruise set at 72 almost the whole way

 

Another reference point - I made a round trip of about 1,000 miles mostly running about 80 and used 24 oz.

 

Here's another datapoint. I averaged about a quart every 1800 miiles over the last 4 months but that's included a couple of track days and some spirited driving. But on calm Interstate driving I've seen no appeciable oil use.

 

Not true if your OMP gos your dead. My 8 too has not been drinking oil like it should or use to. Dont know whats up. I pre-mix and red line 1 2 3 on the freeway on ramps every day to work then sit at 80mph all the way

 

I might start premixing.

I think driving style may have affected it as I do a lot of city driving now. More than I sued to, and theres just not many opportunites to WOT. So maybe that is the case.
