The oil consumption has gotten crazy on this car. I ended up ordering a can of the ACDelco spray Top Engine Cleaner. I removed the plugs and foamed all 4 cylinders with the spray. I went out every hour or so and filled them back up. I would turn over the engine a few turns every time as well. After letting it sit 24 hours, I cranked the engine to get any residual spray out of the cylinders. That ACDelco stuff STINKS!!! Put the plugs back in and tried to start the engine, and tried lol. It finally started and was blowing smelly white smoke. I held the RPMs to about 2,000 to 2,500 until the smoke stopped. Then changed the oil and left the filter. Took it for a drive and came home and changed the oil and filter.
We’ll see if this helps or not. At the point I’m at, it definitely won’t hurt anything! My entire garage and the engine bay of the Kia smells like that cleaner though, it’s nasty smelling stuff but it seems to dissolve carbon really well!
