Like everyone else, I have a 1.8L 7AFE Toyota engine in my car and it is nice and peppy and hasn't failed me yet, but I'm burning a quart of oil every week, or 150-200 miles. I do like hitting it fast off the stop in the city, but more and more I'm beginning to leave a huge blue cloud behind me as I do this. I know it won't last for long like that. It was nice when I got it but if I would have noticed the oil burning I would not have taken it. I find adding No Smoke can help this but it doesn't get rid of it and still burns quite a bit. My next Toyota will be a truck or a Camry.
