Default marvel mystery oil?

i add a small amount of marvel mystery oil to my (25 -35 to 1 gas /synthetic oil mix) and it seems to smooth out both my throttle response and just the way my engines seem to run is better overall. i have heard that marvel does coat the intake tract (carb right up to where the piston meets the intake port orifice) and therefore will provide you with a better flow of the fuel to the combustion chamber. if ya havent tried it give it a whirl.The marvel also for some reason seems to stretch the fuel (longer runs per tank)

You sound like an info-mercial.... Coating the intake tract sounds like it would not be so great. You would want it to have a bit rough texture to better atomize the fuel.

Edit: There is a question mark on the title - - - What's the question here?

That sounds like I can keep my engine for a little bit longer. How much to you put in? And do you mix it with anything else. I also heard of mixing the Mystery Oil and ATF Oil and it is the same as the After Run Oil you buy at the shops. Cheaper too!!

Hey M. Do you notice any loss in performance using marvel as compared to not using it? How much of it do you add to say one gallon of gas?

Thanks, John
