1 quart of oil per 3000 miles is not really considered excessive oil usage. I check my oil about every weekend and add as needed. I run my engine pretty hard and when you run at higher RPM's you will get more "blow-by" in addition to the oil that is ingested through the PCV valve and the vent on the valve cover to the air cleaner. I run syth oil in my PT. After owning several turbo cars and having a bad experience running dino oil in the 1st one many years ago, I will only use syth on turbo cars now.
