I also recently purchased a '98 corolla, and with each mile driven, the oil problem seemed to worsen. I'm going to replace the motor and trans as soon as I can accumulate enough money.I suspect that some 1zzfe's carry some oil management defects. Would a leak-down test reveal whether the oil rings are are defective? I ask this because the used engine supplier does this test before delivering the motor, and I don't want to end up with another oil burner. Does anyone know of a used engine supplier with a 1zzfe near Marquette Michigan?
