I have a 93 240sx convertable with 144,000 miles on it. I am starting to use oil at about the 2,000 mile point between changes. Any ideas on why?

well.. my old integra used to do this.. but thats because of the oil eating motor i have (Ls/vtec)..
try checking the oilpan bolt.. is it tight?
or maybe you need new headgasket
theres only two possibilities i guess
1. maybe your motor eats oil
2. maybe there an oil leak somewhere
go to your mechanic and have your car checked
