Let me start out by saying im not seeing any blue smoke either.I do have a small leak but not that bad.I went through 3 quarts in 170 miles,stopping every 60 to add one.I will be doing a compression test and leakdown test soon ,but what whould be causing me to lose so much?
 
Like i said in my first post,no blue smoke.No oil in water,or water in oil.I did find a leak thats getting timing belt a little wet,so i need to fix that.Ill check everything else out tomorrow.
 
The bottom by the oil filter is coated with oil so going to check it all out today.I just got the car yesterday.
 
Well it also was running really rich but got that toned down.Was just a cupple of intercooler hooses.Now i can see the blue smoke.Looks like a rebuild ,and i just got this car.
