1995 Honda Civic 4 cyl Manual 205000 miles

I have just recently changed my oil on my honda, and less than 2 weeks and less than 200 miles, and found that I had no oil registering on my dipstick. I have put more oil but I was wondering what the chances are that it could be the crank case ventalation valve? It does not smoke, and when up on a rack, there are no signs of leaking. Any suggestions?

When in doubt, replace the pcv valve, it's a cheap part to replace. It might be clogged up and be the culprit. However, to be down that much on your oil, it's probably an internal oil consumption issue.
