cn90 is on a distinguished road
Follow-up 6 months and 3,000 miles later, zero oil consumption: not even a drop, dipstick remained at MAX.

- Remember to check your oil level on a perfectly flat driveway and engine off for about 4-5 minutes. Best is to check your oil level at the same spot in your driveway or your garage.

- Sometimes I checked my oil level at a gas station: even the slightest incline at the gas station can give inaccurate reading, i.e., can move the oil level to somewhere above MIN, but after I got home and parked the car in the same spot overnight, oil level is at MAX.

- Anyway, those interested in the mod can see my setup at post #164.
