I seem to use more oil than I would expect in my 327 Cu", 54 Cavalier.

I do see a wisp of blue smoke occasionally but not continuously.


Bill, the wisp of smoke you mention is similar to this car but it has virtually no leaks....no oil being slung back under the car, no seal leaks and no fouled plugs, good compression and good power. Have you checked the oil consumption of your car vs. say a tank of gas or miles driven? I know you mentioned that your Packard is a daily driver so it would be a good comparison as your leaks sound minor.
