Default Oil Usage ? My low oil pressure light came on yesterday the car needed a qt. Oil chaged 2k ago

Scared the hell out of me. I normally check my oil but seeing the car was recently serviced I did not bother.

how much should it eat ?

Engine has 34k on it. Its a 2001 225

Default I typically have to add a quart between changes, some don't, every car is different.

And mine started to use, right around the mileage yours has. It does not leak, just burns it. somehow.
