As I approach 1000 hours on my plane/engine, I am curious about what to expect regarding oil consumption. My engine has been fairly consistent in oil consumption, about one quart per 8 to 10 hours. Should one expect the consumption to increase noticably as the hours pile on, or are there too many variables to predict? My only long term experience with engines prior to this plane has been with cars, and I've found them to consume oil (if at all) at a constant rate during the life, with little change.
What say those of you with lots of hours on individual airplane engines?
