> How many of you out there are using Marvel mystery oil? This is my own personal opinion, and no matter how many flames I get, I will not lift a finger to defend it. I don't have to. I think MMO is pure snake oil. The concentrartions it's used in (in fuel) are too small for it to possibly have a significant effect. People who use it and don't have a problem attribue it to the MMO. People who don't use it and have a problem attribute that to MMO People who use it and have a problem anyhow say they didn't use enough, or they skipped it once, or the phase of the moon was wrong. For every stuck valve, there is a reasonable, correctable explanation. Too much lead buildup, too much carbon build up, too tight guide, worn (bell mouth) guide, etc. Correct the problem and the valve sticking goes away. LPM did an article a while back on MMO and I agree with their conclusion. It probably doesn't hurt. As far as putting it in the oil: Look at teh material data sheet. It's prommarily a solvent. Do you honestly want to pour a solvent in to your oil and pump it around in the bearings while you run at 75% power? Look at http://siri.uvm.edu/msds/h/q265/q111.html Fire away. I'm back under the table.
