Michael..My 4 MG-B's all use a little oil..It goes into the combustion
chambers by way of the valve stem seals..These MG-B engines have a fair bit of
vacuum and pull oil through seals which are not perfect..None of my cars smoke
at all..the emmisions testers have never seen any visible emmisions..but I
know i must be burning it..
