    Hello Gurus.
    My Volvo did great last year from 1.300000 to 1.375000 and now it’s been sitting for a year. No overhaul on this motor yet.
    Every 12000 miles I’m missing one gallon.
    I want to put it back to work (I’m the driver).
    What would you suggest me to check/replace after a year of sitting?
    It will start I tried her 6 months ago.

    Thanks

    A gallon every 12,000mi is pretty good. Typical oil change is around 15k, and a gallon or so between oil changes is pretty good.

    I’m doing the PM every 12000 miles because of the age and miles on my engine.

    That’s good. Oil consumption seems good.
