Tegger's latest oil consumption
Over the last 979.3 miles... 2,500 miles per quart.
Since I started getting really scientific about it, it seems as though I may have earlier been mistaken about my car's excessive oil usage. So far (in miles): 296,919 to 297,919 - 2,500 mi/qt 298,032 to 299,032 - 2,175 mi/qt 299,493 to 300,472 - 2,500 mi/qt There is some "fudge factor" involved in my measurements, since I'm trying to quickly measure exactly where the top of the oil is on the dipstick before it slides down. I go pessimistic, just to be sure. I've noticed the level is slightly different from one side of the stick to the other, a consequence of the fact that the stick enters the oil pan on an angle. I therefore use the same side all the time. -- Tegger The Unofficial Honda/Acura FAQ www.tegger.com/hondafaq/ |
