I change my oil every 3,000 miles.
I used seafoam in with the old oil when I first got my car and drove it 100 miles, then changed the oil.
It was a dark black color and kinda thick.
After doing that a few times, and I washed all the gunk out, I put half a can of Seafoam, (also known as seafood, if you think it's snake oil) in with my new oil and leave it in there until my next oil change.
My car doesn't burn a drop of oil. I never check the oil level.
I went to get my car smog tested about 7 years ago where they sniff the exhaust, and the guy thought his machine was broken.
It registered no emissions.
He had to do the test twice to finally read something.
My car pollutes less than a brand new car.
They plug into the OBDII port now to test the car.
If my car doesn't pollute it also doesn't foul up the engine.
It runs clean.
Burning oil fouls up O2 sensors, burns out the pre-cat and main cat, fouls up the combustion chambers and spark plugs, and fouls up the EGR system.
Dirty engines don't run properly.
