Burning your Oil (instead of changing)

[Crazy Dazz]

Gotta love how the experts like to proclaim "it's the LAW", as though Moses is gonna come down from the Mountain and Smite Thee.
I'm not sure what rules different states have, but certainly nobody in WA gives a rats ****.
We're talking about the controlled consumption of maybe 1 part per thousand.
So provided your car still complies with the relevant ADRs, and isn't demonstrably dirty, there would be no problem.
We're actually far stricter on Underground mines, all vehicles have to be routinely tested. But these were open pit haul trucks.
As a general rule, we insist on compliance to Australian Standards, but I'm not even sure what standard exist for these engines. Even on the mid-sized trucks, the engines are around 70L. The big ones are over 100.
