Wen you start the engine when old or when you accelerate hard, get someone to look at the back of the exhaust to see if there are blue smokes coming out or not.

If you see smokes coming out, then you know engine is consuming quite a lot of oil because of cracked piston rings.etc. then you can either rebuild engine or get another one. If you don't see any smoke coming out, then it should be fine. because the motor is quite old, and it will consume some oil overtime. Either way, try using a thicker oil, it will reduce oil consumption. like 20W-50 or above.
