That is similar to what happened when the head gasket blew on my 1994 S350.
Except that it happened all at once, got gradually. The failure caused oil
to dump into the #1 cylinder. The cylinder still fired (until oil pressure
built up), and the compression actually went up in that cylinder -

I did not run the engine under that condition long enough to notice any oil
consumption. I'm sure it went down some, but with a 10qt reserve, it was not
significant. I also suspect that a little bit of oil makes a whole lotta

bad pressure valves or actual plunger/sleeve damage.
Check for leaking fuel lines - if they leak out, air leaks in under
