Hi, everyone, I got a 95 ST 1.8L, everything stock, I have a question, how come my engine always eats up motor oil?? I put in 4 qts of motor oil in, and after 2,500 to 3000 miles when I change oil again, only about 1 qt left in the tank? anyone know what's the reason? how much cost to fix it? can I do it myself?? thanx to allk~

thanx to all the replies, man... I think I better off feeding her a bottle every month than get her fixed($800~!!!). I mean, if I got that much of money, I rather get in line for the C-1 replica hood group buy... but I really appreciate every comments here, as at least I know why she is "eating" more than the other gurls... biggrin.gif

Weigh the odds man...

Fix bad motor... C-1 Hood... bad motor... C-1 Hood...

That hood will do you no good if your car is dead... and when it starts eating as much oil as you say... it's gonna go soon...

I'd just replace the engine... you can probably find a used low mileage 7AFE for under 400.00
