I think this is too much marvel mystery oil... its great stuff, I use it all the time. Add just a bit to my gas almost every time I put gas in... and put just a bit in my oil when I change it, and whenever the hydraulic valves act up (which sometimes is just because I drove only across the street after starting... ie, not enough)...... but.. one full quart in your oil... thats too much... esp if you run high speeds.... the oil can get too thin and that buzzy will make your head spin hard when you decelerate off an off-ramp...
