Excessive oil useage.

[David Thompson]

Could be your over filling the oil, most diesel engine will blow
out the extra oil, your better of running a quart or two low then to
over fill. When you change oil put in the 20 quarts, this includs the
filler, then check the dip stick, (the dip stick could be off)it
should be close to full, if the dip stick shows low, then your dip
stick is off.
