My Accert would use less oil with chevron. I also switched engines once to get lower consumption. But that probably wasn't what you were asking.

 

I may try chevron next oil change. Thought about switching trks..lol. Don't want to get into one with the urine tank yet though.

 

I just spent $30k on my 99 classic because I don't want pollution crap. Put a low milage signature 600 my other one spun a Bearing $45k to rebuild. A used engine sounded better. Bunch of small stuff. Should be good for a while

 

Good deal!

 

It is normal to have some oil drip out of there. CAT did make a catch can kit that contains a filter that is installed on the blow by tube and puts oil back in the oil pan.

I don't have that kit on my truck and the underside is coated with oil spray from going down the road. I did however extend the tube with a piece of hose which helped some to keep oil from catching everywhere.

 

How many miles have you put on since your last service ? And have you use/burned any oil ? Is it low ?
