[Shotimes] Oil Leak Prolem???

[Donald Mallinson]

In a word, NO.  That oil can't possibly get into the motor.

Also, while your leaks may seem big, they are NOT the cause 
of your oil use.  Leaks must be HUGE before they can effect 
oil level in a couple thousand miles.

Your oil is going out the tailpipe (after being eaten by the 
cat converters if still working) through the rings or more 
likely, the valve guides.  This is where a SHO v6 usually 
looses almost all of its oil.
