YOu could just change your oil every 3 months, that will solve it. If you're less than a quart low after 3 months, you're not doing too bad.y. Stock oil pressure gauges are notoriously imprecise, you might consider getting a better quality guage that's calibrated so you can tell what psi it's running.

Burning oil and oil pressure are not directly related. Oil burns if it leaks into the cylinders, usually past the valve guides or the rings. Oil pressure will drop if the oil level drops, if the screen on the oil pump pickup gets gunked up, if the oil pump leaks, or if the main bearings get worn.
