the last time i changed my oil, i lost about a quart and a quarter of oil now its been about 2500 miles since my last oil change and i check the level when the car is cold and it is a little bit below half between the two holes, then i warm up the car to normal temperature then shut it off wait about fifteen minutes and check the level again, and now theres no oil on the dipstick, wait another fifteen minutes and check again and still no oil. Does anybody know whats wrong? how can i lose that much oil so soon? i don't run my car hard very often? my friends that have b16 like i do don't lose as much oil as i do only about 3/4 of a quart every 2700 miles

 

you have to be leaking it....if you were burning that much...there would be a huge smoke screen behind you.

 

there is no white smoke comming out of the muffler and there is no leak anywhere in the motor, where is it all going to?

 

FYI white smoke is coolant

Blue smoke is oil

 

ok then there is no BLUE smoke comming out the muffler. so what wrong with my engine?

 

you don't actually have an engine...what you have is an oil evaporator.

have you jacked up the car, and scoured your car for leaks?

 

yup! it clean under there.

 

you gotta be burning it then...I suggest you do a compression test to check out your internals, and make sure you arent losing it @ the rings.

 

that was what i was thinking, i don't have access to a compression tester, but i did take out the spark plugs and they are all clean

 

thats a good sign...

A compression guage only costs 20 bucks..it's a worthwhile investment.

 

well thanks for the help DragIIcivic, i made an appointment at the dealer to have it checked out hopefully its nothing really bad. if anyone has an idea what could be wrong your comments would be appreciated

 

Let us know what it turns out to be.

 

i will.

 

anybody got any answers? still want to hear your opinions.
