Just bought this car, as is. Checked oil after 2 weeks.
2 quarts low. Filled. Checked again 8 days later. 1 quart low. No significant smoke out the tail pipe. Car seems to have plenty of power. A little sluggish on start up. When purchased, the car needed a catalytic converter, changed that. Could burning oil have caused the converter to go bad and any suggestions as to where my oil is going. No visible leaks on the engine block.
