Oil usage is about 1/2 quart per 1,200 miles.
The tailpipe shows evidence of oily exhaust,
but you can never visibly see it burn oil (blue)

I was wondering if the piston rings are wearing
out, I guess at 161K it is a possibility. I guess
I need to do a compression check and see where
that takes me.
