Car started using a quart of oil about every 1000 miles at about 30,000. My local mechanic, who kept my 1998 LeSabre running, and replaced 4 intake gaskets, when it would drop the coolant, says "he thinks" replacing the lower intake gasket would stop the oil use. Notice--he is not sure. We can't find a leak, and there is no smoke, but that oil is going somewhere, and obama tells us we are not drilling for more. The car now has 41,000 miles on it, and is basically still new.
