Default Neon enging prob

My neon is a '95 auto, it burns about 2 quarts of oil every 500 miles, so i was considering 3 options, rebuilding the engine, getting another neon engine to put in in its place, or i was wondering if anyone knew of a good replacement engine from another car that might have more "*****" per say. Thanks for any help you can give me

It's not leaking it, but burning it.[sm=smiley5.gif]Well then, what 2.0L does yours have, the SOHC or the DOHC? If it is a SOHC, toss it and get a DOHC. If it's a DOHC, then you might just want to get it rebuilt. If you have the $$$, then find a wrecked SRT-4 and steal everything you can find from it.[sm=smiley20.gif]
