Blake, and all,

Use a pint of Marvel in you oil when you change your oil--it will keep everything inside your engine clean and spinning free---like the rings for instance---and it will prevent any gums and varnishes from forming, causing the lifter's to hang up---- and the inside of your engine will be clean as new---- A clean engine--is a Happy engine---

While Bob noted to use it primarily prior to an oil change, you are not reaping the total benit of the product.

I have been using it for over 30 years, and have never had a lifter clack, or rings hang up in any engine---

From early 50's Caddy's to Pontiac's---all had lifter problem's---I had zip, nada.

Dump a pint into the gine--run it for 3000 miles, and I'll bet the "clack" will be minimal---

Good Stuff if used as directed----

Later,

Terry

E-mail message From Bob Donalds---

I am a real believer in marvel mistery oil a day or so before the oil is changed. it has time and time again proven itself to me as a great way to quiet down lifters Bob Bob
