Now that I have my car running great, I'm focused on the loss of oil. It's not from a leak. What shows up on the floor seems trivial. Teaspoons. But I'm losing 1/2 quart a week, driving maybe 120 miles. I'm still running a bit rich, and, to me and at least some onlookers, the exhaust is black, not blue or gray. My plugs have been sooty when too rich, but now they're clean and gray/brown.
I rebuilt my engine 9 months or so ago.
Can it be that I screwed up the rings? Wouldn't my plugs be wet or oily if my rings were allowing oil past the block?
Any more ideas about my oil loss?
