MMO as premix for synthetic oil?

Does anyone use Marvel Mystery Oil as a premix for a Mobil 1 oil change?

What have you experienced as a result?

I use it. I have had no bad results. Do a search on MMO and you will find out all you need.

Are you talking about adding MMO into your oil during the oil change? If so, I wouldn't really see the point. The FD dillutes the oil so fast I doubt there would be any benefit at all.

if you take out your oil injectors you will usually have to use the premix gas like on a 2 cycle engine to lube up the bearings in the rotor

What the ****?
The bearings are lubricated by the main oiling system. The MOP is reponsible for lubrication of the apex seals. It has nothing to do with bearings.

I see Red_ricer had enough whoring in the 2nd gen section, so he went to the 3rd gen section. You guys are lucky to have him.

I use MMO sometimes in the gas, but I usually use it between oil changes, instead of adding oil I add MMO.

I use MMO during every oil change, no more no less. 1/4 quart of it goes into the motor, the rest into the gas tank. Not really sure if there's a difference nor do I feel and difference, but it sure as hell make a difference somewhere.
