I just installed my pacesetters and ORY about 2k miles ago. Seems like after that my engine has been burning oil or loosing it somewhere along the line. FYI, I haven't gotten the truck tuned for the header/no cat combo yet. Could that be my problem or should I start looking for a new motor soon?

 

And I also have just shy of 96,000 miles on it.

 

Make sure you totally rule out the possibility of a leak. Double check the lines and get your ecu tuned. If that doesn't work then you've got another problem. I had a similar problem with my 6.0 at roughly the same mileage. I just had a slow leak in one of those lines. I replaced them and I was good to go. A Gen III motor with less than 100K shouldn't be burning any oil.

 

my 6.0 uses about 2 quarts every 3k miles

 

thats kinda excessive don't ya think?

 

That might be a lil much

 

wanna know what my race car uses??? haha

 

Wouldnt even wanna guess!

 

1 quart every night of racin..wich consists of a 5 lap hot laps, 12 heat race and 20 A feature....on a 3/8 mile dirt track running from 5800 to 7200 rpm which is maybe like 20 miles or somethin

 

WOW!!!! Thats alot! But thats pretty high RPM'S! I think dirt track racing would be fun!
