I'd try this first,switch to any name brand 10/30 or 15/40 dino oil and see what happens.......

I have a buddy that farms and has been using one particular type/weight of engine oil in his equipment for years, no problems....some time back a salesman from a competing oil company paid him a visit and gave him enough free oil for an oil change in a couple of tractors hoping to get his business...he tried the competitors oil and found his tractors would "use" about a quart of oil every 5 hours of run time whereas they would use about a quart of oil every 20 hours of run time with the other oil........needless to say, he didn't switch oils......

Some engines are funny that way....
