The first mod for any car owner is a Digital Multimeter. Clean it with Carb or Break cleaner although, I doubt it's going to work.

Well I bought this car because it was a pretty good deal, or at least I thought. Its been a great reliable car but it has been burning oil ever since I bought it... no signs of it though except that its a quart low every 650-700 miles, 689 last time i used the trip meter. So now ima sell it and hopefully buy a mach 1. I feel they have much better potential.
