The thing I'd really worry about is the cat. Most of you know that various oil additives are limited to BELOW certain levels for a given API grade, presumably because even the tiny amounts that might get burned in the combustion chamber might hurt the cat.
So assuming this is a conservative-but-rational reg, wouldn't it seem that burning entire quarts of oil, not controlled for quantities of cat-harmful components, in the space of a few tanks of gas, would be very likely to do real damage?
On the other hand, at least some oil is okay. Your engine is designed to burn some, and MMO is oil, and neither of those seems to hurt. Just wondering if anybody might know more about this I guess. ****, I'd like to try it. But I have a new cat and I'd like it to last a while.
