Yes, it uses a quart of oil in 150-200 miles. I have been told it need guides seals, and rings.... But I want to delve into that a little more to see if it really needs 'all of the above', or perhaps... Just some of the above.


What is the 'tea kettle test'? I can see the visual connection... But I haven't heard that term before.
