Well, one thing would be that your '32 will last forever! .......and the other thing is you will help those of us that "Own" the Marvel Oil Company! Is there anything else needed?

There will be no harm.The benefits (if any) I pour an overdose in my cars before putting away for the winter with hopes it will leave on oil film on the valve guides and cylinder walls.Also keep the fuel pump diaphragm soft and the carb. acelerator pump from sticking.Also dump some thru the carb. intake with engine running to further "coat" the mentioned parts.Another benefit is the sweet smell-it gives me a "high"

That reminds me of another MMO story.....This Christmas Eve I got down the kids (all grown now) big scale electric train The Rocky Mountain Express and set it up for the little grandson. It has real engine chug-chug sounds from a 9 volt battery, put in a new battery. It also has a smoke generator and smokestack that you put a few drops of oil in, the original oil was long ago gone so I went out and got a can of MMO put a few drops down the stack and away she went chugging and 'a-smoking! that good white sweet smellin' smoke and after a couple of rounds it slowed to a stop. I put a few more drops in and away she goes a couple more rounds and slowed to a stop again, then I noticed she stopped right next to the MMO can! The durn engine had become addicted to MMO... and that is no lie..... Ha! Ha!

It's a good thing that you didn't have a bottle of Budweiser sitting next to the tracks instead of the MMO!

FYI,
The old Chipper does not have even the first drop of MMO on his premises. He uses ATF as it is less expensive and works well.

Moedip: Yep, I think that you are right because Chev Nut tried drinking it and you see what happened to him.

I vote with the Chipper on this one. ATF works great.
