a '99 w/ 22k mile on it?????

dont change to synthetic... stay with whats workin....

 

You have enough money for a tune, but yet you use Generic Oil. What's wrong with you. If you race your motor up to high rpm's often your oil will breakdown and you will lose all viscosity in your oil at around 1,000 miles. If you use Mobil 1 Fuly synthetic the 15,000 mile protection stuff and change your oil every 6,000 miles you will spend the same amount of money as that cheap sh.t every 2,000 miles. As you really should change every 2,000 miles to be safe if you run your engine hard! I use 15k Mobil 1 10w-30 with Purolator Pure-One filter. Same as K&N, but half the price. Besides I would rather spend a little more money to get under my car and get dirtier LESS OFTEN!!!!

 

My 99 will burn maybe 1 quart every 2000 miles.

 

my 00 has a new engine with 6300k on it sythentic all the time dosent burn a drop and when i change the oil comes out as clean as i put it in but i change about every 2-3k

 

my 97 with 114000 on it burns about 1 quart every 1000 miles.

Hence I'm planning an engine build. haha runs g reat tho

 

I burned roughly 1/4 quart of synthetic in 1300miles

 

my 96 with 90k miles doesn't burn a drop...

 

hopefully after a fresh built engine and break in mine won't use any oil

 

Until that happens you better keep an extra quart of oil in your trunk!...lol
