Hey Tom, what is this maxlife you speak of?

Can it be used with mobile 1 synthetic?

RE: My experience with Maxlife and oil usage

No kidding! Where'd you dig this relic up from, BTJustice? At any rate, Pro once told me that if it's valve seals, it will smoke...period. In my feeble brain, however, it seems like in the early stages of valve seal degradation, the smoke would be hard to notice, and there would still be oil consumption. I could be wrong though.

By the way, for anyone that cares, I just changed my oil level sensor because it was leaking. I'm now waiting to see what effect this has on oil usage.
