Oil Level/Comsumption - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

GOFAST · 10-21-2012

I have a '95 with about 12k miles. I purchased the car about one year ago and have found it difficult to get a consistent oil level reading on the dipstick. My last oil change was about 3k miles ago (Mobil 1 XP 10W30), and I added about 8 2/3 Quarts which read slightly below the full mark on the dipstick. Since the change I have added the remaining 1/3 Quart (9 total), it now reads in the middle between add and full.

The engine has either started to burn oil or I just never got it full from the last change. I would appreciate your input/experience.

Thanks.
