Kilgore47's post in Engine smoke was marked as the answer
If you only use one quart a year I wouldn't worry about it. How many miles is that? Next I'm going to say something that will probably get me several comments. But since you are using a 10 \ 40 oil - you might consider using a 20 \ 50 oil instead of an additive. It's your car and from what you have described - if you don't change anything your car should be fine.

Kilgore47's post in Starter fluids was marked as the answer
I keep starting fluid in my shop. I have an old Jeep that refuses to start if I let it sit too long. A shot to the air cleaner and it cranks right up. After that - no problem - starts every time. Let it sit for two or three weeks and it just wears the battery down trying to start it. I have replaced the ignition system, by passed the computer and rebuilt or replaced most of the fuel system. It's just an old worn out engine.
