oil

[z250kid]

is it normal to go threw like 1/2 a quart of it in about 3000 miles?
and my injector orings are bad could this add to the burning?
no oil in the exhust.

but i do have a leaking front crankshaft but a little leak

on a gas engine car it is normal to go through 1 quart every 2,000 miles even band new off the lot. a diesel not sure but I would asume the same

its not a big leak doesnt drip of the pan just mad it wet and one little drop like a week.

But in the factory book ford gives you on the powerstroke says it usall for the motor to use some oil, between changes. It says to check it everytime you refill your tanks???

My 2000 I had used a quart every 6k and my 97 4wd I had used a pint every 6k.
