My other corolla uses a quart of oil (.9464 liters) in about two days. The problem is cylinder two doesn't fire and cylinder one rarely fires with any enthusiasm due to its 90 psi compression. They take forever to heat up while the rings get beat all to hell and so much oil leaks past that it actually started to seep oil through the exhaust manifold gasket. Too many attempts at four-wheel burnouts.
