Default Low Oil Light. Different Question.

Ive noticed that after I change my oil right before it needs to be changed again the Low Oil light comes on. I check it and it is low. My concern is, where does it go??? I have to either change the oil or add a little more to it until it's time to change. The car doesnt smoke or anything unless I piddle around town grandma style and then give it hell to "Clean it out" but it runs great and have had no problems. Are the F-bodys notorious for eating oil or what? It's been doing it since I got the car with 34,000 on it and now has 71,000 but never notice anything power wise wrong.

Yeah LS1 are known for burning oil a little. Some more than others. (1 qt per 2000 miles) Alot of people expirement with different oils to try to get oil consumption down.

You can always install a new pcv to solve the problem because they usually to blame.
