No idea what the normal range is but my Westerbeke 21 with 2500 hours burns 
very little oil. Maybe 0.2 quarts in 40 hours.  Of course it has a seemingly 
permanent coolant leak....

Sorry maybe didn't word it right

The motor time was about 24 hours no wind at about 2500 rpm  this was more 
delivery then enjoyment. Needed to get back for work

Just wondering if others burn oil with their diesel to that amount.

Thanks
