Thanks for all the advice and places to start the trouble shooting...don't think it will be anything major, but was headed in this week or next for new tires and oil change so I guess we will add this to the list!
Speaking of oil, what are you guys running? I have the FMS 392 that originally was running 10w30 GTX, but the mechanic suggested changing to 15w40 to see if we could stop it from using oil to no avail. I talked to Maurice at Unique and Lyle at southern automotive, both suggesting 50w Lucas racing oil.
Thanks, and the willingness to share the good and bad experiences are what make this hobby great!
Chris
