Marvel Mystery Oil

I cannot give enough praise for this product
After just 250 miles, the 4 quart 20W50/ 1 quart MMO mixture has done its job. I wasn't certain if it was working at first, as the noise actually got much louder and more consistent, before it simply disappeared. Now I have a quiet engine, without so much as a whimper from any of those pesky hydraulic lifters. This stuff will stay until spring, at which time the new oil change will be the same exact wonderful-smelling mixture, unless you mechanics believe that the oil has too much removed crud to wait until April, '09.

Thanks Everyone.

Seth

It can wait until spring as long as you don't plan on driving it until then.

Otherwise, change the oil & filter a little sooner than normal to get the loosened stuff out of the crankcase.

Re: Marvel Mystery Oil

It is an everyday driver.
I will do another oil change this month.
No more Fram filters, only K&N.

Thanks Again,

Seth
