Just curious what ya'lls trucks were doing in terms of oil consumption over the course of an oil change interval.
My 2 door, 1998, 4wd has about 230k on the original engine. I have to add a whole quart inbetween 3000 mile oil change intervals.
I know I have a small leak somewhere but am unable to pinpoint it but really doubt that accounts for the quart that I have to add. I never see oil stains in the drive way, just a little oil near the starter, rear of oil pan and filter adaptor. Rear main seal has been changed recently when I replaced the tranny.
I'm thinking the high mileage engine just consumes alot of oil. No black/gray smoke out the tail pipe so I'm just wondering.
