^^yeah it seems heavy oil usage does not occur on all the Coyotes out there
My car didn't burn oil the first 2500 miles
I put jlt intake
Lund 93 octane tune
offroad H and axelebacks
I have 3900 miles now and last night I smelled oil
got a friend to drive behind me and its smoking
Stopped pulled the oil cap off at idle and it was puffing
Bad blowby
Sooooo im gonna figure this thing out
Also tho I did change my oil at 2500 miles
Its non synthetic, because I didn't know the factory oil was semi
Would that make it burn?
No, it wouldn't burn more cause of being conventional. If you are seeing smoke out of the tailpipes I would check your plugs and see if #8 is drinking some oil
Im gonna pull #8 this evening
I was running a lund tune btw
Im stock now
So I figured out why my car was using all the oil...
The PCV design on these cars are faulty and has absolutely no restriction. I pulled my intake manifold off and it was drenched in oil! The passenger side breather hose is allowing all the oil to be put into the intake and causing the smoke. The throttle body has no evidence of having oil pass through it which means that the drivers side head is not putting the oil into the intake, only the passenger.
A normal catch can will not cure the problem, it needs a catch can that will drain the accumulated oil back into the motor. I also think a redesigned PCV valve will greatly reduce oil consumption.
I'm going to have to disagree with your assessment. My car burns almost no oil.
Perhaps your PCV wasn't hooked up properly when you switched to the BOSS manifold?
Maybe the valve is defective.
I can't right now I work 12that hour days lol I will this evening after 8its lol
Im fucked I know it
The valves design itself is faulty, I have checked several different of the 5.0's including a brand new valve and they are all identical.
