does anyone have a diffinitive answer?!
there is no diffinitive answer as each engine is different; but all cossies use oil

i would wait until the RR'd set up; i just hope your going to someone who knows what they are doing? where are you taking it?

if you CO% is out by a long way, this could explain the high oil consumption and smoke
