I have a 1993 tercel with about 170,000 miles. For as long as I have had it, it has either used, burned, or lost oil. I was told that the issue is that when the engion is turned off the oil does not drain properly to the oil pan but instead leakes into the heads and is burned out the next time the engion is started. Does this sound right? If so any solutions that you all know of? Thanks.
