I seem to be loosing oil at the rate of 1 qt per 1000 miles. I cannot see any obvious leaks. My Vanagon doesn't blow blue/black/grey/whatever smoke. If it is using oil would it HAVE to make some smoke? I also checked the coolant in the expansion tank, thinking some sork of reverse head leak but there was not any there. Thanks -Chip

BTW, the SA Vanagon pictures have been moved to http://www.fament.com/chip/vw/vanagon/savan.html but there is still a pointer in the old location. I hope to get the new pictures up tonight, they are pretty cool.
