I have a 2000 ATV. It runs beautifully of course, but seems to have quite a thirst for oil, there are no leaks noticeable. Does this engine normally go thru a lot of oil?
Hi, I'm running it on 5W40 fully synthetic and it does go through a litre every 4-5000 miles . Not too worried as long as it doesnt wreck the lamba sensor!
Same with my car 1liter a month no leaks an no smoke compesion tested and all is ok. Even on the accordr forum loads of people complain about high oil useage. Just keep checking it
uum interesting are you caning your engine really hard ? even so it should be consuming oil it not a full on aggressive VTEC like the B & H series.. what are your cylinder compression reading or ideally a leak down test?
