oil consumption

["David A. Barker" <d_barker@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

   We had a 66 P****ac w/a 389 that did that from new. Drop a quart almost immediately after a change and sit there until the next change(2k miles). That never changed in the 130k miles we had the car.

hi all:

 

years ago friends of mine would tell me to run my mopar V-8's a qt. low as the first qt. would burn off after 5-750 miles and then stay at 1 qt.low for the next 1000 miles..I must admit getting the same results myself..any truth or reason to this? my '74 imp 440 is doing the same thing...thanks!
