Hey so, just back from Oshkosh and the many forums on engine maintenance.I asked the very same question of one engine maintenance lecturer and radial-engine owner (see pic); he replied that MMO is nothing more than 20-weight sewing machine oil with wintergreen fragrance added. Hence, he meant there is little value added by using it.
Some may say it's great, I personally don't plan to use it in my CJ6.

Some like it some say its a waste.
Never tried it.
Bought some, for the ones who use it.
How much to put in the oil, how much to put in the fuel?
What are the benefits?
Cons? Apart from money wasted?

I just want to know if anybody’s ever tried it with Vodka.

I’m now a believer.
| Quote: | A few weeks back I wrote with a puzzling problem that I thought might be a sticky valve.
Dennis Savarese offered the following:
“Add a quart of Marvel Mystery Oil to the oil and go fly the airplane for an hour or two.?? The MMO tends to clean the valve stems and valve guides of the varnish buildup that causes valve(s) to stick. Even a couple of quarts won't hurt it.
|
Absolutely solved the problem.
I understand that one should add 4oz per 10 gallons of fuel, but I don’t know the appropriate MMO to oil dosage. Arbitrarily, I added a half quart when I just changed the oil. I’m positive that someone else will pop up with the right answer.

I believe Jill from M14 said in the past that she has not experienced carbon issues with values with M14p that use mmo and multi grade. I trust Jill.

In the first 200 hours of operating an M-14P, I had three cylinder pulls due to exhaust valve lead deposits. Started using MMO as much as 1/2 quart per 30 gallons. Idle was immediately smoother, no lead on valves for the following 600 hours. That being said, one of the real contributors to exhaust valve leading is low RPM combined with low cylinder head temps. M-14's are very happy to run fairly hard with CHT in range and not low. My experience over the last 20 years or so. To each their own of course but in all the long history of MMO discussions, many say it works, many say it doesn't (curious how that was determined) but no one has EVER said that it hurt their engine. So personally, I use it religiously.

Add 6 oz. per 15 gallons of fuel. Interpolate when topping off the fuel. It's printed right on the MMO container.
Add 1 quart into the oil tank one to two hours before an oil change. Definitely fly the airplane for the one to two hour period.

With all due respect to the lecturer, that is pure unadulterated B.S. !!
Marvel Mystery Oil is a product of the Marvel Oil Company, founded by Burt Pierce.[1] It is used as a fuel additive, oil additive, corrosion inhibitor, penetrating oil, and transmission leak stopper and seal relubricator

Great read about MMO. I drink an ounce a day myself and my hair is now silky and much thicker. Â
But on a serious note. Â
The article said a pint 5 hours before and oil change. Â
That is in a cub that holds about 4 quarts. Should we put more in the M14P?
At oil change I put in 2 quarts. Â Every 5 quart added I put in 8 ounces. Â
I add it to the fuel per your example. Â
I bore scoped my cylinders during the last inspection before I put the plugs back. Â Â
Valve seats super clean. Â
I love the stuff.Â

Why Add 1 quart into the oil tank one to two hours before an oil change?
Then it will be drained.
So it will work for only a couple of hrs.
What am I missing here?

With all due respect to the lecturer, that is pure unadulterated B.S. !!
Marvel Mystery Oil is a product of the Marvel Oil Company, founded by Burt Pierce.[1] It is used as a fuel additive, oil additive, corrosion inhibitor, penetrating oil, and transmission leak stopper and seal relubricator. It is composed primarily of petroleum distillates, including mineral oil (60-100%), mineral spirits {10-30%}, tricresyl phosphate (an antiwear and extreme pressure additive in lubricants, 0.1-1.0%), ortho dichlorobenzene (a softening and removing agent for carbon-based contamination on metal surfaces, 0.1-1.0%), and para dichlorobenzene (a precursor used in the production of chemically and thermally resistant polymers, <0.1%).

Whether you choose to use it or not, I can unequivocally say "it works"! Search the Yak list and you'll find many, many people who have used it and who now swear by it.

Hey so, just back from Oshkosh and the many forums on engine maintenance.I asked the very same question of one engine maintenance lecturer and radial-engine owner (see pic); he replied that MMO is nothing more than 20-weight sewing machine oil with wintergreen fragrance added. Hence, he meant there is little value added by using it.
Some may say it's great, I personally don't plan to use it in my CJ6.

Some like it some say its a waste.
Never tried it.
Bought some, for the ones who use it.
How much to put in the oil, how much to put in the fuel?
What are the benefits?
Cons? Apart from money wasted?

The general thought process is that adding it to the oil acts like a type of
solvent, cleaning any buildup off of various internals. So where does all
that bad stuff go? Into the oil. There it will be in suspension and could
indeed "settle out". Thus the premise of adding it to the oil, running the
engine hard for an hour or two, then while the oil is still hot, immediately
draining it all out and adding brand new clean oil. You're draining all
that bad crap out of the engine.
Doing this the first time with an engine that has lots and lots of hours on
it should be approached with caution. Kind of like adding High Thermal
Stability oil to a turbine for the first time.

I'll pull a little seniority here. I started flying when 15 (1955). My dad an A&P and foreman at Eastern Airlines, brought my brother & I a Luscomb 8a to build up our flying time. He used MMO. I've seen every decent A&P I've run into in all those years used it. Stuck valves being the primary reason. If somethings works and proven so over the years, stay with it. I've several stuck valves in both Housi and M-14p. MMO was my first and only needed answer. BTW next time at Reno take a walk though the pits and see how much MMO you see there. Jim "Pappy" Goolsby
