Topic: New Project, how much oil consumption is too much?
A friend of mine gave me his former DD, 2003 Mazda 6 v6, after the engine started consuming oil. I was told it takes about a quart per tank. Does anyone have any similar experience with the Duratec? Right now I'm thinking I'll just put new coils on it (came with the car) and top up the oil as needed between stints.
Cursory internet search seems to say it could be weak spark, PCV, or just bad rings. The intake is coming off anyway to do the rear bank of coils, so I'll probably do the PCV then.
Also, any cage shop recommendations around the Detroit area?
Still thinking of themes. Original idea was a full Dale tribute (Mazder Carlo) but I kind of want to dress it up goth (Mazda 666)
