Problem with heavy oil consumption.
Hi,
Am having problems with finding the cause of heavy oil consumption in a power stroke diesel. It is using about 1 quart of oil to every 80 miles.
Have changed injectors and new blower but didn't help. Exhaust doesn't show any problems.
Anyone have any ideas to cause and how to fix.
Thanks,
Mike

What year is it? How many miles is on it? Has it always done this or is it a recent thing? When you changed injectors did you use new O-rings and if so did you install them correctly? Do you have oil in the fuel (drain the fuel filter canister from the water drain into a glass jar and see if it is too dark to be fuel).?
