Check your PCV valve and hoses

From my recent experience...Check your PCV valve and hoses.

I had a bad PCV valve and my LC was burning 5 qts per 500 miles! Thought I needed a new engine. Changed it out and now it hasnt lost any measurable amount of oil over the past 500 miles but I am still monitoring it.

How is the compression? I ran both a leakdown test and compression test. This ruled out any internal problems w/ rings or valves.
