RE: problem
If it were burning that much that quick..you'd see it blow the blues out the back.....as for what's going on??? hmmm odd.......I'd try monitoring it for a while and see if it was a fluke thing....but check your coolant and see if there is any oil in it/ collecting at the top of the radiator cap...if not then no worries

RE: problem
ya checked the coolant..its good...and i dont really feel a power loss..but i mean...idk..ive had people tell me it blows a little when i go WOT...but other than that ive nevernoticed it smoke..idk maybe it was a little low when i put it away..i hope..imean its burned a quart for a oilchange(about 3300) before...but ive never had anything like this happen..lol bad thing is..i wont be able to monitor to much for a while..itll be back in the 20's n snowing by this weekend...ionlygot it out forthese few crazy mid to high 60s days were havin right now..
