A  dissent.  I have seen up close and personal 2 TIO-520s on different twin
Cessnas that had been treated with microlon and had subsequently suffered
catastrophic failures.  The IA involved with both did not think the Microlon
had caused the failures, but showed me ugly white stuff strewn about the
engines, and, for sure, the microlon did not prevent the problems. Tom Mayer

STAY AWAY FROM MICROLON, SLICK 50, LINKITE, AND OTHER SIMILAR CRAP!!!

DONT EVER PUT IT INTO YOUR ENGINE. USE A GOOD QUALITY FULL SYNTHETIC OIL AND
CHANGE IT AT REGULAR INTERVALS. CONSIDER ENHANCING LOWERED ZINC LEVELS ON NEWEST
OILS...

All my years of chemistry and material analysis at school has taught me well.

Spelling is optional though... ;-)
