Jan of Eggenfelner subaru engine fame has recently e-mentioned that
marvel
mystery oil added to their fuel per can instructions helped with lead
fuel
use problems. Now, since I thought that stuff really was straight
mineral
oil with perfume, I don't understand how that would work and/or what
problems it would help with, whether it was also being used with
decelin,
TCP or not; and/or, what that would do to help with sag that
rotaryfolks
seem to encounter. Anybody out there tried it, willing to try it
and/orgot
reasonable theories/explanations?

If you use it in the fuel it breaks down and leaves a lot of crud
on the rotor.
Put a tea spoon worth in a small cat food can and bake it in the
oven for one half hour at 500F. Do the same with 2 cycle oil and see
the difference.
For sag try the iridium plugs used in the RX8 engine.

Whats sag? T.W.
Around about 50 to 100 hours as I recall the spark plugs start to
go away and the engine loses power (sags).
Paul Lamar ...No rotor no motor.
I think it was a term coined by either Tracy or Ed Anderson
I think the acronym was:
Sudden
Attention
Getter
You'd have to ask them to be sure.
