Marvel Mystery product line?

Yep. It failed the 500 degree test compared to two cycle oil. 
It is a wonder it works in the rotary. It is a mystery to me :-)

Inspection of Tracy's Crook's apex seals through the exhaust
port shows they are in perfect condition after having 80,000
miles in a car and 800 hours in the air. The big difference is..
two cycle oil has been mixed with the fuel. I don't know how
much you know about two cycle oil but I will say it is far more
suited to cooling and lubing the apex seals then the engine
system oil. Tracy himself is a very talented engineer.
