Keep in mind the '90 MY was not equipped with valve guide seals. It is not uncommon at all for a '90 to give a little puff of smoke on start up, so obviously they will burn/use a little oil. Also the PCV system on these cars is not ideal either. If I used too light of an oil in my old '90 it would use more oil. So use the recommended weight 10w-30, and expect some usage. The Lingenfelter doesn't use any.
