Fuel System Cleaners & Oil Consumption

[wrangler]

Does anyone else out there get any oil consumption when they use a fuel system cleaner like Redline's SI-1 or Techron...

Every time I add a full bottle of either product to a full tank of gas (19 gallons) by the end of the tank (300 miles) I get a few ounces of missing oil. It never happens if I don’t use any fuel system cleaners.

I have never gotten any with FP (I'm assuming because I use a lot less 4oz per tank).

Have used Redline S-1 & Chevron Tech. a few times on my 02 Camry & 99 Tacoma with no side effects.
I'm using Chevron 5/30 & 10/30.
Have never had to top up oil.

Just about to post a same problem!

My Accord never use any oil (except small leaks). Use LC, FP and Lucas for the past 1500mi and just notice my oil is missing 3/4qt.

Nothing done to the car within the last 1500mi!

The instructions that came with my bottle of LC said to watch out for oil consumption for some time after putting in LC for the first time, but that it would go away eventually.
