**** that 5w-30, mines just burns it right up, i dive 100 miles a day to work and i put 1/2 quart every 2 days, i picked me up some 10w-40 Castrol GTX, hoping that helps-also i was running without a PCV vavle too, got it on there about 5 days ago, hopeing that helps also............
O yeah 5w-30 is for UNDER 0 degrees F. conditions, which i dont think where i live hit that very much, even if it did i sure the hell didnt drive my sh*t unless i had to
