Re: Adding Marvel Mystery oil to fuel
There is no mistake it was MMO. In about a 6 month period I disassembled and cooked approx 25 glow engines in a crockpot and got them sparkling clean...no residue, no fuel, no nothing on the parts. I loaded the crankcases/cyls, etc with MMO, drained them and pulled the engines through to make sure all parts were coated...then set them in a display case for 1-2 yrs. Every motor seized. There was nothing wet about it. The goo was definitely from MMO...same color and smell even. <br /><br />After talking to model engine collectors about it they told me that is what happens with MMO and why they don't use it. Risoline is what the pro collectors use for long term storage. I've been storing glow engines since about 1958 and used castor oil...it locks the engine up too but mild heat releases it. Only when I switched to MMO did the problem appear.
