how often you adding oil?
 

I'm adding a Quart of valvoline 10-30, or 10-40(depending on the season) every 800-850 miles on my 90 lx w/176k. And i think this is normal. I almost always shift at 3,ooo to 3,500 RPM in the first 4 gears, sometimes going to 5,500. And once a week i floor it through 2nd and 3rd to keep the engine loose.
Because im adding so much i change the oil and filter every 4,500-5,000 miles, even though the manual says to do it at 7,500.
I try to keep a log on the work on my car and gas fillups and I'm getting 25-26mpg dropping to 21-23 in the winter.
I LOVE THIS CAR!!!!

you know...i really haVEN'T KEPT TABS ON THAT TOO CLOSELY...BUT ITS A GOOD IDEA....I'M GOING TO START...AND SEE WHAT I COME UP WITH......:dunno:

I add a quart every couple of weeks or so, but my valve cover gasket is shot.

The valve guide seals are tired too, but they only act up in cold weather.

I never add oil.. She doesn't leak or burn a drop 93 lx 5 speed 95k

Give it a little time, and it will start leaking. It doesn't take much from the rear main seal to make a big mess. With your low mileage (and obviously regular oil changes), you shouldn't have oil burn problems for a long while.

Im pulling it out and putting in a GTR motor this spring with 37k :-) ...Jon

I try to change my oil and filter every 3,000 miles. I thought that was the general rule. Also, from what I heard, you should check your oil after each tank of fuel you burn. Davard... how much did that GTR motor cost, and where did you get it?

I got it From www.Barelylegaltransplants.com and it cost around 3000 shipped maybe alittle more or less i bought other jdm parts with it also ...Jon
