It doesn't seem to burn any oil and runs fine. I was thinking of those miracle-run-the-engine-without-oil-or-water infomercial-type products. In my mind they're worthless but I can be wrong. Anything to make the engine last a little longer. Thanks, Steve '88 GTI 2.0 16V (spare 1.8 16V in garage) _____________ List Sponsor: http://www.netsville.com To remove yourself from this list, send mail to [email protected] with 'unsubscribe a2_16v' in the body of your message See us on the web at http://www.a2-16v.com Visit the 16V Homepage at http://www.gti16v.org
