I have 1999 EB 5.4 with 207K miles. It "uses" oil, meaning I have to add oil between changes, sometimes up to 1.5 quarts. I keep hearing that my Expy is "using" oil, but not sure what that means.
1. The ground is clean under it - no drips, no nothing.
2. There is no smell of burning oil coming from the exhaust, and the exhaust is colorless.
3. PCV seems normal - when I recently changed it, it was still "rattling" without issues.
I just put in some Lucas Oil Stabilizer to see if that helps, not really that concerned about it - BUT, my son (who is learning about cars) asked me and I did not have a good answer for him... and he called me on it (respectfully).
Thoughts?
