Ken, I've never met one of these Jeeps, but as no one has directly answered your question and following on from what Rob has said, Then I'd say: Yes, The excessive crank case pressure could very well increase oil consumption.
Changing a negative pressure in the crankcase to a positive pressure would likely be enough.
