[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 12301220, member: 11681"] Some of the severe oil consumption issues plaguing many modern engine designs and car manufacturers are in fact being caused by low drag/low tension piston rings becoming coked with deposits and getting stuck in the ring lands. They are supposed to push out against the walls under compression and high cylinder pressure, when they are coked they can't. The GM 5.3L V8 and the Toyota 2.4L 4 cylinder are just two of the many victims of this fairly common malady. You can combat this by using a fuel that already contains a cleaner and by regularly supplementing that with some of the cleaners mentioned in this thread. Using synthetic oils will keep the lower half of the pistons and the rest of the inside of the engine MUCH cleaner than conventional oils can. They are worth the extra money on many different levels.
