Hello all!
Did Google search for the effects (or non-effects), of
Marvel Mystery Oil. This forum was selected by a website
pop-down.
Just bought a 1990 Ford Bronco II w/ 2.9 liter 6 cylinder.
Have read HORROR stories of the ticking, and false oil
pressure readings along w/ CRACKED CYLINDER HEADS,
via the internet. (searched on Google for these stories).
Seems that there are good and bad stories.
Had the cooling and transmission flushed.
Engine ticks! According to Chilton, rocker arm assembly
can be adjusted. Having this done 11/30/04.
But must say, (vehicle has 76k), this is a fun vehicle.
Put some money into this to baby it along.
Looking to add some good oil to the engine to help it
along. Pure synthetic is not recommended by "my"
mechanic. A Ford mechanic suggests Castrol. So I am
taking the middle road, and getting Castrol "High Mileage"
blend, but hoping to add 1 quart of Marvel Mystery Oil to
this mix. Hence this whole forum adventure.
Will pursue to see what you and others have written
on the mystery of Marvel Mystery Oil.
Thanks!
