BURNING OIL? HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION? AMETECH Engine Restorer 250ml for a 1 Litre engine. Worn engines, neglected engines and high mileage engines often start to use more engine oil with time. The wear in the cylinder walls and piston rings, cut into the metal surfaces through friction during normal use, begins to allow oil to escape past the piston rings into the combustion chamber - often evidenced as blue smoke. Sometimes though, the smoke is not apparent, but the oil level still drops on the dipstick and the engine oil has to be replenished regularly - not only inconvenient and tiresome, but also expensive. Some engines are designed to consume a certain quota of oil every 1000 miles - straight from the factory! The user handbook for the motor car will usually give an indication of the oil consumption to expect.
