sup fella's..when you guys run your celi hard do you get kind of a funky smell after 4 grand? i do, i always thought that was just the engine really heating up. but now i'm thinking i might be burning mad oil after 4 grand. oil levels stay fine unless i run it hard on a regular basis. and i know some oil will burn up. but mine seems to be a ridiculous amount. i don't know..maybe its just my imagination. but 10w40 redline shouldn't burn up like this. just thought i'd see if any of you notice the same type of things.

an engine shouldn't burn a NOTICABLE amount more oil when driving hard, unless you do it every time you get in your car...and that's a very bad decision to make, not only for the car's life, but for your own. anyway, you might wanna get your car checked out man. bryan, you might too, if you notice that it's burning oil, also, do you check your temp gauge? and if so, does the car get hot at all?
my suggestion is just to get a check-up and all at a reliable place.
