2001 6VE1 in a 1999 VX

[majork]

Thanks for the sage advice.....

I guess rumors that later versions of the 6VE1 eliminated the oil consumption problem are basically myth then....that is, not #1 cylinder oil rings

I would love to eliminate that annoying issue once and for all...I have read also that the source of the problem is potentialy oil being sucked through the PCV valve during certain driving conditions....

Any reason the head gasket should start leaking at this point, or is it expected normal wear and tear...??

Joe, being new to the Isuzu community, what is a Direct Injection drivetrain?
