My 1977 Saab would go 10,000 miles without appreciable oil loss. I used to change the "Lee Two Stage Maxi Oil Filter" every 5k and the oil every 10k. (whatever happened to Lee filters, anyway?) IIRC, that's not the way it works in a piston engine Cessna. Is the oil consumption measured in quarts per day when flying cross country?
