burying oil? take the shovel away from the car.

burning oil? get your piston rings replaced. That'll be big money. Might as well build the engine while you're at it.

Umm, replace the engine. Check that the PCV valve is not clogged but that's usually a symptom of a worn-out engine and not the direct cause of burning oil.

Are you sure it's buring it? Your not leaking anywere? What color is your coolant? Have you done a compression test?
