Marvel mystery oil
Has anyone ever tried a little of this in their fuel? I put about 2-3 ounces in the tank every other fill up.It seems to really kick in the variable valve timing,when getting on the freeway.

It`s been around for a very long time,you can get it at most auto parts places like Auto-Zone,Advance Auto Parts etc. You can also add it to your crank case,(I don`t suggest that if your using synthetic oil) I alway`s keep some of it around. It comes in a red/black bottle,good stuff!

I believe it's a high octane naptha-like compound (judging by the smell) - like Techron. A couple of ounces in a tankfull of gas wouldn't boost the octane by a significant amount though. Don't know what else it might be doing (?)

ok so let me get this straight, its a fluid you dump in the fuel tank to lube up all components leading up to fuel injectors but at the same time it will burn off or simply get discharged through the exhaust once it gets to the combustion chamber and leaves no residue inside that chamber
does that sound accurate?
