My FD doesn't seem to burn any oil. Every time I check it, It always indicates F. But I don't trust the accuracy of dipstick. is there any other way to check your oil level instead of dipstick? I change my oil every 2000miles and my oil change place always fills right at F so should I forget about oil level? Thanks.

Yeah, forget about it. Mine never goes down noticeably either.

I always had that same deal with the original engine in my car. The FC that I had before was a "normal" user, in that by the time I'd change oil at 2000 - 3000 miles or so it would be down a good quart, sometime I would have to add a little in between changes.
My FD on the other hand was just always 'full'. I suspected fuel dilution due to a potentially faulty injector, but when I had my injectors cleaned a serviced for installation in my new engine they were okay according to WITCHHUNTER.
My new engine has "used" a scoche since I put it in, but it has less than 300 miles on it so I am waiting to see what IT does.
I always kind of worried about my oil metering pump, even though it shows it is working fine.
So I always add a bit of MARVEL MYSTERY OIL or some good two-strok oil to my gas, just to be on the safe side.

Probably fuel dilution from worn seals---you are using oil, but fuel is getting into the oil. Happened to me on my original motor, ever since I have had to add oil periodically with my newer motor. Do you have high miles on your engine?

I have 30k miles on my engine.
