Default 3.6L woah's

I have a 2012 Jku and if you can imagine the motor is toast, burns 15L/1000km so my first question, has anyone used and had any success with the oil additives as I need to basically make it last as long as possible as, do to economy it's now our only vehicle. Second does anyone know if there is such thing as a rebuild kit for them? I've had very little luck with locating parts like that. Third has anyone got any good sources for a long block near ab or bc. If anyone has any suggedtions aside from the desired hemi swap please feel free. Thanks in advance for any info.

Are you sure it's burning it and not leaking it. Favorite places for leaks are oil pressure sensor and crankshaft seal front or back. Front crankshaft seal leaks are reasonably common.

Well I was until i've been talking to a few people who are shocked by how much it is losing, i definitely don't have any spots on my driveway, according to the techs at the dealership there aren't any visible leaks, the plugs aren't fouled and there isnnt oil in the exhaust, it does blow blue. It also sputters while accelerating after it's been off for a few hrs and stinks like sulpher when under heavy acceleration.
