Oil consumption question
First off, I want to thank everyone for sharing their knowledge on here. My wife's 02 3.0 X wouldn't have made it to 260k with out your help. So here is where I am today. Changed the oil 2 weeks ago. She has put 1500 miles on it. The engine is now tight and no more leaks since I have done the valve cover, CCV and at the last oil change the oil filter housing gasket. I am currently running Pennzoil Platinum 10w-30 full synthetic. Almost halfway down on the dipstick at this point (about a quart). What are people's thoughts at this point? Before the housing gasket repair, I would have been at least double that consumption. Do I just leave it alone at this point and just buy tons of oil? Not really noticing any smoke and it just passed the Massachusetts vehicle emissions inspection with flying colors. Thanks again everyone.
