I rebuilt the engine in my TR6 a year ago, and have put like 8000 miles on it since, then, but it's still burning oil. It got several new valves, new valve guides all around, new valve seats, bored .030 over with new pistons and rings, and yet it's still burning a large amount of oil. I've had 10W-30 Castrol non-synthetic in it, but when it burns oil I've been refilling it with Castrol 20W-50 non-synthetic. When I was running straight 20W-50, it burned less oil, but it still burned it. Anyone know the reason for this, or a blend of oil that I could use that might help cut down on consumption?
Thanks.
