Newby question. I've got about 1500 miles on my rebuilt 83.5 engine. It is sucking down oil at a prodigous rate. I keep dumping a quart in about every 700 miles. Is it all just going out the tailpipe until the rings get seated? Should I be changing the oil and or filter, or can I wait until it hits the standard 4,000 mile mark? TIA, Drew 83.5 "Happy" camper [text/x-vcard] begin:vcard n:Bedford;Drew tel;work:(435) 513-1300 x-mozilla-html:FALSE url:http://www.bomb-proof.com org:Bomb-Proof Productions adr:;;;;;; version:2.1 end:vcard
