oil use in 787

[Rebber4]

How much oil should be used from the oil tank per tank of gas? i noticed my oil level dropped less than a half inch and i used 10 gallons of gas. Just wandering if that is normal or should I be looking for a problem.

Oil can gel in the oil filter. We recommend change the filter every two years. Gelling originates from impurities cycled thru the Big oil lines,
into the oil tank. Suggest you also check the alignment marks on oil pump.

Yeah alignment marks are good. I just dont know what the normal oil usage is. Is the mix ratio 25:1, 40:1, 50:1?
