Post your latest oil top off

[tblt44]

Amazing engine zero issues with the truck other than the oil usage more reliable than SOME of the other V8 trucks in the fleet plenty of power to do anything a half ton is made for

80k+ on that particular truck now it has leveled off at one quart aprox per 1.750 miles ...... I have found that driving conditions greatly effect the amount used for example on a long trip all highway from OKC to Alamosa Colorado and back it was nearly 2k miles all highway and it barley used ANY when doing service calls and city driving its right on at one quart per 1750 to 2000

Here are the oils this truck has used with ALMOST no difference in consumption

AC delco full syn ( Mobil Shaped bottles)
Mobil 1 Truck and SUV
Mobil High mileage full syn
Castrol Silver bottle GTX

Unscientific but the GTX 5w30 SEEMS to burn off slower but I am waiting a while for this to prove true

With recent oil price speculation I did grab 6 Five quart jugs of Silver GTX so this truck will be burning this oil for the foreseeable future

Thanks for the overall truck info

Try ATP-205 on that seal leak. Worked for me on vehicle engines and OPE engines. My 96' snow blower leaked ALL the oil out of it while sitting in summer storage. Right out from the rear seal. Put 1/2 bottle of ATP-205, and the rest was 30wt oil. Stopped that leak in a few hours running it. As long as the seal is not torn, it should swell it, and stop it. That stuff even swelled valve stem seals on my 03' Toyota. No more puff of blue smoke on cold starts.

Thanks for the info , I'll give it try.

2003 Honda Odyssey w/317k miles. 2500 miles on the oil (Supertech 5w-20 synthetic). Topped up with 0.5qt of the same after fixing a leaking VTEC solenoid gasket. It doesn't really burn any oil, was just dripping from the oil filter housing for a while.
