n/a not using oil

Hi am pretty new to the rotary world, I have a 88 fc n/a when a bought the car about 2 month ago it was using oil as it should, changed the plugs and oil an filter, about 3 weeks ago and it doesn't seem to hav used much if any oil :/ I did over fill it slightly but we are talking just over the max line, not half way up the dip stick lol the other day I put sum 2 stroke in the tank as a precaution, since the service I've only been going to and from work a 4 mile round trip, is there away to check the omp is working or is there a likely fault? Any help would be grate thanks

Maybe in the first month of getting it a good few hundred maybe 600-800 and over the last month 150-200 max, maybe just the lack of miles and not heavy footed driving over the last month?
