I am having exact issue on both of our 500efi. Going thru 1 qt per hour. Plugs are all fouled. Intake feels extremely hot. Talked to the builder they said windage trays were put back in correctly. Haven't tried pulling pcv valves but would both valves go bad at the same time? What else should we check?

Didnt have an issue last year before valve job. Would go 20 hours without having to add any oil. 15-50 M1. Not to mention all plugs being black. Doubt all rings are shot at the same time. Not to mention both motors are showing signs of same symptoms. Won't throw out the idea of a leak check tho.

thanks for the clarification SB. Looking in the intake, there was oil in there. What are the other mechanisms to get oil in there?

All 16 plugs look like this after 1.5 hours run time...these were brand new plugs.
