Think about what you are saying. There are people on this board that used to drop a quart of oil in every tank to "lubricate" the IP.
Of course, when they finally figured out that the lower sulfur fuel wouldn't damage our IPs because they are lubed by motor oil they stopped.
But I don't remember one of them saying 1 quart in 3 or 400 miles was even visable.
And would it really be that bad to drop a quart in the engine every time you filled up the tank....not really, especially if the alternative was a $2000 rebuild.

That may be, and your right about people adding oil and such to fuel, but a motor burning that much from the crank case and dumping it in the fuel tank are two different things. I'd sell anything that used that much oil unless it was just not financialy possible. I don't doubt the engine could function just fine for ages like this, but I have some pride.
