Oh ..no ... I didn't mean to imply that your technique wasn't a viable one. Just reporting my experience.

btw is it the Mitsubishi motor? if it is, kiss those rings goodbye. if there is a company that sucks as bad or worse than chrystler its mitsubishi.. this is just my opinion. i have had jeeps, caravan, and the diamante.. all [censored] aside from the jeep motors

Whoa!
You cannot generalize from your experience with one known deficient product that imports are better than domestics.
We have owned mainly inports over the years, but our one US built purchase, a '97 Aerostar 3.0, has been as reliable and as durable as any Honda or Mercedes I have ever owned (we've had six Hondas and four Benzes). Your Chrysler minivan may be a POS, but you cannot therefore conclude that all domestic vehicles are the same.

hey guys, just checking back in about this.
since i last posted in this thread i purchased a new PCV valve for the van, and finally tracked down somebody to buy Auto-Rx off of in Canada.
i have not yet gotten the Auto-Rx or installed the PCV, but i will likely be doing both this week. so i'll post again later to let you know if any of that has helped.
i'm almost 100% positive it's not a leak, because at the rate that i'm losing oil, there would HAVE to be an oil puddle under the car... or at the very least, a trickle. but there's nothing. the engine is consuming oil. and at a very high rate.
any other ideas?
