Engine sludge?
If you have excessive sludge (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/engine-oil-is-black-and-gritty-inspection) in the engine, then the oil that you pour into the engine may not be able to drain down into the oil pan.

2005 hummer temp gauge drops off and than sputters and sometimes dies. temp up and drives fine

Oil in coolant.
Oil in your coolant is a bad sign. This usually indicates a leaking head gasket or cracked head. A cooling system pressure test and block test will be able to determine this. I suggest having a qualified technician, such as...

Was driving my h2 at 48 miles per hour when the gear got knocked into reverse by accident and now my H2 will not go in reverse
Hi there. Thanks for contacting us today. If you shifted into reverse while the vehicle was in forwarding motion, it's likely that shift linkage or the reverse gear itself has been damaged.

Hello there, I was wondering if I would need to add a manual transmission if I add a twin turbo to my automatic car.
I recommend keeping your transmission in your vehicle that it is designed for. If you plan on putting in a Twin Turbo setup, then the transmission will hold up to the changes. Automatic transmissions are designed to take more abuse...

You may have got contaminated fuel from the gas station. The code P0300 indicates you are getting a random engine misfire (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/engine-is-misfiring-inspection). This random misfire does not point to any one cylinder misfire and indicates that the fuel may be...
Sludge in engine, constantly low on oil
If you are losing that much oil, and there are no external leaks (leaks that are visible outside), your vehicle may be consuming the oil. Unfortunately this can be harder to diagnose than an external leak. The valve guides and...
