Marvel Mystery Oil and BG 44K
Do any of you know an online store who sells both?
I have been looking around and the cheapest Marvel Mystery oil for 1 gallon is 14.99 and the BG 44k runs for 16.00 per can. They are available from separate store though......
Thanks in advance!

Marvel Mystery Oil (MMO) + Xylene + normal gasoline = Race gas (determined by concentration).
Cheapest I've found it was $11.99 a gallon at Napa. When you factor in shipping, it really isnt worth buying online.

NAPA carries these?
Hmm....here in WI Autozone and Advance Auto Parts never carry MMO. Perhaps I should check the nearest NAPA store.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Found them at Napa
They carry MMO for about 4.50 tax included for a quart of MMO. A gallon goes for US$ 15 plus tax.
They don't carry BG 44K though...so I guess I have to order them online again (US$ 16 per can).

Look under Misc/Eagle/Talon...
It's the best price I've found so far.

I put in MMO (the smaller bottle for the gas tank that treates up to 20 gallons - was $2 at the store) and my car is using up more gas. This weekend I'll find out what MPG I get. I usually get 16-18 MPG, but I think I'll be getting a 14 or 15 this time

Same experience
Hello JataN,
I am having the same experience. I put in a quart of MMO to my engine oil and gas to eliminate knocking problems in my car (after cleaning the TB).
http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?p=2410634
...the good news is, after two consecutive BG treatment, one oil change (due to Auto Rx interval) and one quart of MMO, the knocking is gone. I guess the BG and MMO really cleaned up the combustion chamber really good.
About two hours back, I put in a small amount of MMO into my gas tank and noticed my mpg drops from about 28-30 mpg to around 25-27. So, yes, MMO seems to make our cars burn a little more gas (the same thing for BG44K as well).

I don't see what MMO does in the gas; in fact, in an older Nissan I had one time (88 Pulsar NX SE, CA18DE) it made the engine ping like a motherf!@#$%...
Now, in the oil on the other hand... it's far more useful... (used to have my mom's old 88 Tempo running pretty well)

spirilis,
Perhaps it's just me....but I could feel that the engine is smoother during cold warm-up (Castrol GTX 5w30) when I pour a small amount of MMO in it.
I was wondering if there is an oil analysis of the MMO......curious what's inside it. I was told from the store that farmers and aviation industry uses a lot of these to mix it with the gas, especially for engines that prefers to have a little bit of lead in them. I don't know whether it's true or not though....
BTW, I just found out that Walmart at Beloit, WI sells MMO for about $3 for a quart...... much cheaper than Napa, at $4.5 per quart.

Yeah, MMO is good stuff in the oil, at least on cars that need it (like I said, my mom's old Tempo worked GREAT with it... I did use it in the gas as well, didn't really notice a difference)... the engine became much quieter, and after a couple months driving without it, then putting some in, I could notice the difference yet again... though IMHO the "right" solution for modern cars is to just run synthetic in them from the start

I agree. I am usually running Amsoil 0w30 with no additional additive. I am just running the Gtx due to Auto Rx procedures (dyno oil during clean up).
