Oil Consumption - this is not a fun topic. Just ask Ford, who is facing a class action lawsuit related to excessive oil consumption. There are 3 key areas when it comes to oil consumption. We will even cover some advice for dealing with oil consumption. However, one of the reasons this topic is difficult is because there are no easy answers. In fact what can help reduce oil consumption in one engine could actually increase oil consumption in another engine.

I'm a Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers Certified Lubrication Specialist and Oil Monitoring Analyst (I've maintained both of those for over a decade). I also worked for Joe Gibbs Racing for 12 years as their lubricant specialist. During that time, we worked with Wix Filters (one of our sponsors) to test and develop filters for our race engines. We also worked with Lubrizol and Chevron-Phillips Chemical to test and develop oils for our race cars. Following that, I was the head of R&D for Driven Racing Oil. During that time, I formulated and tested over 50 products. We also worked with Cummins, Comp Cams, Oak Ridge National Labs and General Motors on various R&D products. Those efforts are recorded in peer reviewed white papers published by SAE International and ACS Sustainable Chemistry journals. Today, I provide Tribology consulting and used oil analysis via SPEEDiagnostix. #motoroil #engine #viscosity #ford #gm
