burning oil

Check it as often as you get gas. Every high performance car I've ever had has burnt a little oil. Not much, but over 10k miles I'll bet it would

Check it as often as you get gas. Every high performance car I've ever had has burnt a little oil. Not much, but over 10k miles I'll bet it would have been bad. Keep your own maintenance records. Have Blackstone Labs do an oil analysis on the oil that comes out when you change it Saturday, and then every other oil change after that.

Didnt mean too.. I wouldnt either. But they dont put a sticker in my car, they program the computer. For some reason, the computer was blank. He swore he programmed it. Who knows.
