I don't think we count belt teeth. Just order the one specified for your engine. See ECS above.

I don't think it's every two weeks, I checked it last nigh and it took 1/3rd of a quart so now it shows full on dip stick. Wrote down the mileage and will keep an eye on it. If the car was smokeing you would think the spark pluggs would be black and thier not???????. I pulled the hose going into the throttle body and no oil very clean. I degreased the motor last Sunday so I could check for leaks, need to put on a lift and give it a once good eyeing. I will pull the new pluggs this weekend to see if those are black. I will also have someone follow me to see if there is black stuff comming out. Thanks Jason will place and order on Saturday due to it's not a emegency that I need a belt just wanted one on hand.

I didn't read the entire post but I would just like to mention that the oil cooler o-ring fails sometimes and it lets oil drain slowly.
I had this problem with my 2.8 and it cost me about a quart of oil per day.

First of be sure you don't have too much oil in your engine. I think 6 1/2 quarts is max for our engines.
You say you are going through a lot of oil...
Maybe your timing is off.. which damaged or can damage your internals. Sometimes the valve stem seals fail.
You are definitely going to need to replace your tensioner gaskets, half moon seal (usually included with the tensioner gasket), valve cover gasket
and I would even go as far as taking off the tranny oil pan and replacing the internal filter, getting new fluid, and replacing the gasket.
You can replace the fuel filter, those aren't too expensive. Take out your spark plugs and check their condition. Make sure you don't have any oil in those areas.
Changing the gear fluid in the differentials would be a good idea also.
