I just purchased a '99 with 73K miles on it. I run it on the interstate a couple of hours twice a week and the rest of my miles are around town. Total is 400-500 miles per week. In the three weeks I've owned it, I've put seven quarts of 10W30 in it -- five when I changed the oil and two more to replace what has disappeared in about 1200 miles.
I hear switching to synthetic can slow this down but there is the potential for creating new leaks that weren't there before. Opinions?
Haven't tried the SeaFoam yet. Where can you get this stuff? AutoZone? Advance Auto Parts? Should you use this right before an oil change or put it in with new oil? Think that doing a power flush would be a good or bad idea? Seems like getting rid of the sludge that's already in there would be a good idea?
Any advice fron you veteran Rodeo owners would be greatly appreciated.
