Marvels Mystery Oil

Thank You L78steve. I new about this test but never saw the results. Have run the Super Tec outbord since 2007 in my cummins. At walmart it is now around $12.00 per galon. Of course every thing goes up in price . It now is about $1.50 per tank.
Have 174,000 miles on it, and have had no injector or injection pump problems.
 
So are we not just fine to run off-road high sulfur diesel without additives in our RTVs and tractors?
 
Hi sulfur fuel is not a problem. The low sulfur is. Not enough lube for the injection pump. Just to be safe use a good additive, Much cheaper in the long run.
 
It is not the absence of sulfer that causes the lubrisity problem. It is the process of removing the sulfer that causes the problem. I think the only difference between off road diesel and highway diesel is the color. That way the DOT inspectors can tell if you use the tax reduced cheaper red diesel on the road. When they find out you get a HIGH DOLLAR ticket.

This statement is very true.

The quality of the diesel is exactly the same.

The bulk suppliers add a "dye" to the farm / off-road (un-taxed) fuel, or that is the way it is here in Louisiana.

Marvel mystery oil

Big Ben.
I use it in fuel and engine oil. I might be sort of old but had a skidloader about 20 years ago with a 1000 series Detroit inline 4. I was servicing,and had run Marvel since new.

I had drained the engine oil and changed the filter when my ex-sister in law showed up. We got along like 2 strange pit bulls in a meat market.
We got into it so I took out my frustration with an hour and a half of grading 3 loads of 3/4 crushed I had delivered that morning,wide open!

When I got out I went into the shop for a cold beer and what was sitting on my worktop ? My oil. I had forgot to fill it back up.
I never had a problem, owned it another 3 years.

I think it was the oil. They say it bonds to the metal and reduces friction.

Needless to say I am never without a jug of Marvel.
 
Dieselman; that's quite a story, you should send it to MMO, maybe they'd give you a year supply free :D

I have used it in older engines{oil} allways use it for a fuel additive gas or diesel. I know there has been a lot of issue's with modern gas{ethanol} engines, Atleast the small ones, eating rubber fittings. Knock on wood, I truely believe the MMO has prevented the problems I've seen with other engines.

Quite the story. But impossible. The crank bearings would fry in seconds.
 
20/20 Thanks,

Never thought of that. It was 9 bucks a gallon.
Then 12 , then 14, 16 and now 19.99 per gallon. A year supply would be Awesome.
Maybe I should e-mail it !

I run it in my truck,tractor,car and even add a little to my saw bar oil that I make out of drained hydro and engine oil and gear lube.
 
Its not a story. It happened.
Scat track 1700 CX 1995 . Maybe you need a little faith in the marvelous mystery oil !
Out of fear,I refilled,ran for and hour then changed again hoping not to see metal flakes.
Got nothing. Proofs in the pudding.

definatley not impossible seen it done with other much more expensive additives. Infact at one time there was a commercial showing an engine running with no oil on TV{can't remember what they were endorcing}. When I was a much younger lad we did it with an old 350 twin honda motorcycle, used lucas oil{if I remember correct}. We drained the oil and left the plug out wanted to see if we could blow it up, Ran it for 30+ miles nothing happened. Gave up and decided to use it as a trade in :D.

Here is one example [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcYBgod7L_k[/ame] Notice in the end they had to rev the heck out of it under no load to make it die.
 
yup back in the day they had slick50 and they ran the engine with the oil pan off and shooting a water hose all up in the crank while reving the engine and it still ran.i had a little geo metro that ran low on oil and drove it from mobile to houma only to find out there wasn't any oil showing on the dipstick never had a problem with that car.
