oil consumption
98 gs-r with 120 000km. The car is burning alot of oil under heavy acceleration, like i can go through half a litre in 2 days, but if i don't vtec oil consumption is fine. I've checked the tail pipe everytime i kick it, no blue or black smoke come out at all. I look under the oil pan, seem to be a bit of oil hanging on the drain bolt, but its not like dripping hard or anything. When i replaced the spark plugs, i notice there was fresh clean oil on one of spark plug in one cyclinder. THe car is fully tuned up. Could it be a bad seal??

I would replace the spark plug seals, the ones under the valve cover, and try using a better quality high mileage oil, and perhaps adding an additive such as Lucas oil treatment to aid in stop oil from burning.
Hope this helps. Sanj |
im actually using mobil 1 10W40. iwill check the spark plug for oil agian.
|
my guess is that the valve seals are toast

I'd just take it easy on the pedal. Don't accelerate heavily and you should have no problems:)
