I recently purchased a 2001 Frontier, 3.3 v-6 crew cab. I test drove the truck for 3 weeks (was a trade) and was really happy with it, truck did not use a drop of oil, and I got 19 MPG, and zero problems. Well after the trade was complete I changed the oil, used Castrol, and a Purolator pure one oil filter, and when I first cranked up I notice some white smoke, cleared right up and thought nothing more of it. Used a quart of oil first week after oil change, and now another quart, I'm going to change the filter this week, and put on a Napa filter, I was just wonder if anyone has seen this ?
I read over this forum a lot before I purchased the truck, and searched for using oil threads, looks like motor problems are few and far between. I did notice it had a yellow Pennzoil filter on it when I changed it, I hope the filter is my only problem. Any pointers I sure would appreciate it.
Thanks, Clint
