Marvel Mysetery oil

[Daniel Hussey <GY3WSX@VM.SC.EDU>]

   Steve,

     Sorry, forgot to include this.  Yes, Marvel Mystery oil is truly a "snake
oil" as they call 'em.  But, IT WORKS!  My friend with a 5ktq added some with h
is oil (one traetment) and lifter noise hasn't returned since.  You supposedly
add one quart of Marvel and then 4 Quarts of your usual oil.  I was going to ad
d some, but then I wasn't sure whether you could add it in with synthetic.  I
still don't know, but maybee someone else on this list knows the answer.  I'd a
sk your mechanic that question.  He probably knows.

     I haven't decided to add it because I have not had a problem with lifter n
oise since I have been using the OEM (Mahle) oil filters with the synthetic mot
or oil (Castrol Syntec).  You are wise by using synthetic motor oil (Mobil 1),
but if you are not using the OEM oil filters, I suggest that you do.  You may
get the same results as I did.

                                                           Later,
                                                           Dan
