chugging oil

Post by Makdawg420 »

My 94 GS has 211 000 km on it and the motor is blowing a good amount of smoke. The smoke is white and puffs out when i stomp on it. I'm using 5w40 oil and it goes through about 1 L every 400 km. Is there anything i can do (different oil, leak sealant, etc.) that i can do to make it not burn so bad until i can afford my ze swap?

ya i got screwed over, I bought it and it didnt smoke at all, then it just started burning oil. I think it might be more than 400 km, but i'm in the habit of dumping 1 L into it almost every week :( I really like the car though so i wanna get a ZE in it. But i'm sketched that the motor might be gone before i can afford to put a ze in it.
