Got an appointment for oil consumption test tomorrow. Anybody got any tips to encourage oil consumption? I'm thinking of letting the car idle for 5 minutes every morning. I'll be pretty stoked if I get a new engine.

Don't shift until 6K-7K rpm lol. From the OC thread, oil really gets burned up at high revs.

I believe engine braking from high RPM's is what eats oil up the most.
