should be called: stoned corvette guy changes oil and fixes lighter

Octane ratings on gasoline only means their resistance to detonation. Unless you have a high compression or boosted engine it is identical in burn speed, energy output, and stoichiometric mixture with air. In other words, an older ls engine will run fine on 87 octane

Bunch of smoke cause you spilled the shit everywhere lol

I also put MMO in my gas, it keeps it running great, my grandfather and father swore by MMO, it's the greatest

If you have to do that kind of fill ,hold your finger over the opening for as long as you can, then shove the spout right down the hole. You'll spill some, but 95% will get into the engine this way...MARVEL MYSTERY OIL is good stuff, it definitely has its place on any good mechanics shelf. Great in the fuel too, especially with today's ethanol in most fuels... Nice ride for sure!!!

Marvel mystery oil is the stuff!

That year Corvette with a V8 engine takes 5 quarts of oil not 4quarts. Start out with a marvel mystery oil video and you morph to a bunch of other stuff. Then drift back to the oil topic. Just all over the place.

Yep. That 5w20 oil wasnt even around when this car was built. I had a 77 Vette and it took 10w30 oil

I bailed when the MMO was splashed all over the engine.

My xterra was using quite a bit of oil, it had an oil leak when I first got it(he said it didn't, but I finally realized it) which turned out to be a quick n easy fix. But, I think the previous owner may have let it run low on oil and when I first got it, I drove it on a long trip and the next day when i checked the oil, it was really low. Not sure if that caused the problem or he was not good with oil changes. But, the engine has always done well except for too much oil consumption. It had what I think was too much blow by, so when I replaced the timing chains recently, I poured a decent amount of MMO down each plug hole and let it set for about a week, I rotated the engine several times during this process and after several days, I added some more. Once I had it all back together, it took it a bit to start and man it smoked like a chimney for about 30 min or so. So far the oil consumption is WAY down and after around 1k miles, the oil level is still very close to where it was when i changed it. after getting the engine back together, I put in some conventional oil with some mmo and drove it for a couple hundred miles, then changed it with my typical high mileage mobil 1 and a little less than a qt of mmo. So maybe the rings were stuck with carbon ,, idk.. It never smoked, but it was consuming oil and had quite a bit of blow by. I bought a pretty good air compressor air water separator and installed it, like a catch can and that is also working great. So b4 you listen to all the nay sayer's about if you have blow by it's too late, at least give it a shot. Could just be a ring stuck with carbon or from some other reason. I drove my car from bama back to NC and checked it each day for the past week and the oil is still very close to full and I may have not gotten it totally full when I changed it, so we'll see, but for now she is much better and runs great and also, no more low octane pinging like I was getting b4, with all the oil from the pcv going into the intake. I learned that it lowers the octane, I always wondered why when I used regular fuel I would get some pinging, now the issue is gone! I think between the mmo and the "oil catch can", problem solved.

So next time try to flip the bottle so that the snout is on the top instead of the bottom. Helps prevent the gurgle.

Red Bull is a helluva drug

Feed that engine shell rotella 15w-40 deisel oil. It has all the good vitamins for an old engine like that.

You must not really care about your car to just dump that oil all over it

Was waiting for underhood engine fire courtesy of oil soaked exhaust manifold

Spilled oil on the exhaust manifold can cause fires. Try adding Marvel Mystery Oil to the gas tank per manufacturers recommendation. My grandfather rebuilt engines in the 60s and used the stuff. It wasn't until my 50s untill I rediscovered the stuff. Won't harm catalytic converters either. Loved your video.

Marvel Mystery Oil will clean your engine . If your motor is old and full of dirty sludge from lack of oil changes . MMO will dump a Hugh amount of sludge in the bottom of the pan . Sometimes blocking the oil pick up . You'll lose oil pressure and need to remove the pan and clean it out . It can work too well .

I've been using MMO and Lucas fuel & oil products for years . . . Decades in the case of MMO, as did my dad. Proper maintenance and regular oil and fluid changes are the key to powertrain longevity. I've owned and driven musclecars and worked on them as well. If it's stock, that vintage Corvette has a low-compression smog motor, probably about 8.5:1, and unless the manufacturer recommends high-test, you can probably get away with 87 octane fuel. I add MMO and Lucas fuel treatment to every 3rd tankful at least. I just had to replace my 5.4 3valve Triton-powered Expedition with just under 540,000 miles without any internal repairs. I'd consider what another commenter recommended regarding the Rotella diesel oil . . . Makes sense. Will probably cushion the valves and protect the top end of the mill, but the MMO added to the gas also helps lubricate the valvetrain. Good luck

His name is Snuffleupagus. I gotta quit doing drugs before watching youtube.

Thin weight oil you just bought 5w20? Usually v8s run 15w40 or 10w40 etc

Techron is the best fuel system treatment ever! MMO isn't bad either but better for cleaning and treating your internals in your engine. I use both. My lil work daily is a Ford ranger with the 2.3l 5sp 2wd with 502,000 miles and still rocking the original engine transmission and rear end! 3000 mile oil changes clearly does wonders along with good maintenance. I just give my daughter a 2006 Impala recently and it now has 220,000 miles and runs like the day it was new. Both Techron and MMO helped both vehicles get to these mileages!

A 25 amp fuse versus a 20 amp fuse isn't going to make your sig lighter malfunction. good grief!

A bad PCV valve can cause so much more damage. Change your PCV valve now!

This guy sounds like John C. Reilly, kept waiting to hear a quote from step brothers.

Put mmo in the gas also. You will tell the difference

For some reason, it's kind of fun watching somebody dump oil everywhere. I like your attitude though you sound fun

Kleb, mystery oil is amazing! Engine oil for that year i would run a high mileage 20w50 during the summer and high mileage 10w40 in the winter. Plus you can run Seafoam in the fuel to help clean the carb and valves

The corvette looks like it was winking

premium burns slower which is important if you have a high compression motor. You don't have a high compression motor. burn regular.

You should really have your own radio station!..

should have saved some MMO for the lighter

Takes 5 qt of oil just sayin

Saying someone isn't able to pour Marvel Mystery oil without pouring it all over the exhaust manifold is about as bad as saying they couldn't pour piss out of a boot if the instructions were written on the heel.

The Vette winking at us?

Jesus.................nuff said

Id use 10w40 conventional. 5w20 seems to light of a oil. I'm not sure what kind of engine you have. I got an old Chevy 350 that was burning some oil. I started using Pennzoil high mileage 10w 40 conventional. After about the fifth oil change the old burning has stopped. I change the oil every 3000 miles.

One full quart of MMO (Marval Mystery Oil) replaces one full quart of regular oil.

Who is this dude. Hes funny

I mix lucus upper cylinder lubricant with mmo 50 50 and put 3oz. In every 3rd gas fill up and never no problems at all

Gerber should replace that broken blade. Am sure they will .

Dude marvel mystery oil was used for fuel additive read the instructions on the container helps lube top end engine components

You're a great host, but this is embarrassing clickbait. I wish you had titled it a little better. I'm sure you think the title's why I clicked on the video, but it's probably the 10th MMO video I've watched out of curiosity. Not trying to be harsh. Again, you're a great host.

I would use 10-40 or even a 20-50 in an older V8 because its a little thicker. Also, you need to buy better oil filters... STB filters are pretty weak, with felt end-caps. Plus, being a Hi=Performance engine you need a sturdy oil filter like Wix, or Fram Ultra Synthetic (even if using conventional oil) I also swear by Marvel Mystery Oil. I put 1/4oz per gallon of gas, and do an oil flush from time to time like you did. I wouldn't suggest adding Marvel to the oil and running the car normally because the Marvel will break down the viscosity of the actual engine oil. Todays oils are high tech. The additives have a great benefit to your engine, and make the oil last far longer before viscosity breakdown.

Its not rocket science, the bottle is shaped a specific was bc you are supposed to pour it from the proper side. The larger half facing the ground to prevent the air gulps and splashing. I am wondering if you ever changed your oil, added oil, added any fluids in anything prior to this. As far as octane, put what it was designed for. You have spark plugs that burn a specific temp based on the compression of your motor. If you have an 87 car that has 91 in it, you'll find the combustion and plugs doesn't burn hot enough for full detonation, and unburned fuel gets burned out the exhaust. If you use 91 in an 87 car, it has hotter plug which will burn the fuel before detonation causing the classing "ping and knocking". Good luck to your channel. This video gives me a headache. Reminds me of my 8yr old phone and all his videos of these overly hyper people. People do not act like this on a daily basis when the cameras go off. Almost like newcasters, they don't talk like that in real life at home. But anyways, I was looking for a legit credible video. Based on what I saw and see, I cannot take you serious. But yes, Marvel Mystery works.

You were not supposed to pour that whole bottle of marvel in there at one time😂😂😂😂

Cars with older motors an carbon on pistons can benefit from premium fuel. From ping. Fyi but a working car with low miles. Run the fuel that’s required.

They most likely put thicker oil in it to try preventing it from burning it so quickly. With a thinner oil it might bypass the piston oil ring and increase the oil consumption.

You're pouring with the bottle upside down...

let the lighter cool off before replacing it, it will last longer, also tap out any residue in it after use.

Asking questions like what grade octane to use, makes me think you shouldn’t own that car

I get the same effect of people wanting to talk to me about my car. A car no longer sold in the US, very unique breed that is becoming very rare - A Smart Fortwo.

All u need is 87 octane for that motor if it's stock

Can't lie I cringed when u bought that 5w20 oil😬

Haha ,yeah dude lighters are hot,replace your pcv valve,run Rotella T6 5w40 that older motor will love you for it

Love those dog! I just bought some Marvel Mystery Oil and I'm considering trying it for the first time. My SUVs been sitting for 8 months so I'm considering putting it in the crankcase and the fuel tank. Thoughts?

U sir are crazy diamond. Shine on u legend

Just change the gasket seal. Silicone seal would be the best way to go. Otherwise you will just be pouring $$$ down the drain into your crankcase and watching it burn away or puddle under your car .

Super tech in a Corvette that when you know that oil is good

all SBC hold 5 quarts...

10w40 is an ok oil!! I have it in my Opel Astra G wagon 1.7 Turbodiesel and its verry good!!! BUTT,take a good brand!!! NOT the cheap stuff. Good brand = good additives , cheap brand = minimum additives!!

Put straight 30 weight oil all the old chevys leak and burn oil😂

I’ve had a 70 c10 a 71 c10 and a 88 Camaro 2 with you engine the 350 and one with the original engine I put 93 in each but I know the 350 said to use 91+

My old 1972 Chevy vega station wagon got you beat .it used to burn a quart of oil every 47 miles ..But when I owned that car in the early 1980's .oil was like $0.34 a quart ..Casrol oil was like $0.45 a quart

That is not a header. That is a stock exhaust manifold. There’s a difference.

It wasn't 25%, it was 20%...

I have a 76 VW BUS. Takes 3.2 quarts of oil with filter. How much of this is safe to add to the VW. It's obviously air cooled. Thanks.

Techron was good when it had PEA on it, now they're using cheap stuff tha cleans less the PEA.

You are so funny, dude!! the video is very good and the tips as well.

People are not annoying sometimes. They are annoying all the time !!!

cornmeal

Just keep putting the premium in it

Stuck piston rings or worn rings. Worth rebuilding.

Vp non ethanol fuel is the best here in oregon.

Your name is SnuffedEnoughIGuess? You held the bottle upside down. The neck should be on top when you pour to prevent air bubbles from disturbing the laminar flow.

That's at least a 5qt oil pan. Don't run that 5w-20 oil ... 10w-30 is light as you should go on the old Chevy V8. Hope your mechanic skills increase 👍 Have fun 😎

And you're high on what?!!

Your is 350 engine v8..how many hp??. How many miles??????.

Speed? Mainlining red bull?

Why the clickbait label bro smh

1/2 in the crank and half in the gas tank. That's a 2 quart bottle. But your going to drain soon anyway. Save the tecron for later.

great additive mmo, you spilled mmo all over the headers/engine that = smoke. you want to sell your vett

No issue on newer Toyota with both

Eighty Seven cents.

Berryman in the fuel tank

Dude should take a bus or cab everywhere he goes🙄, has no business owning a vehicle.

Burnout!!!

*LEARN ABOUT CARS* before you attempt to maintain them! The fuse was NOT the problem. The fuse just keeps the device from drawing too much electricity and burning itself up. You either had something disconnected or a connection was corroded, and you moving everything around wore through that and a good connection was made. IT'S AN EXHAUST MANIFOLD, not a "header." Headers are tubular. You have a cast iron manifold. YOU NEED 93 OCTANE GAS because of the compression ratio of the engine. If you use lower octane gas you will damage your engine, if the manual says you have to use 93 octane gas. YOU NEED TO KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. Learn first BEFORE you destroy your car.

Try to cut back on the coffee..okay.

I use MMO in every oil change. I also use ST oil from Walmart. Not sure how it would work with an older engine like that but high miliage full synthetic ST brand oil is just a couple bucks more per 5qts

20 oils on the high end didn't exist when your car was made. No way would it be great for it. As it's a thin oil, it might have helped to clean the engine a bit. Minimum 30 on the high end of the oil, but since it's old a 40 might be better. I would say 10w40 in summer, 5w40 in winter if it gets down to 0 F or below in winter.

He's gonna drive from the northeast to cali.......ha haha .he funny guy

Great video, very entertaining

Instead of trying to work for mo just read the instructions

Work on those oil filling skills.😂

Use funnel

10w-30 all the time.

um it dont take oil.....your dipstick is too short??? 4 quarts? its not a 3 cyl

This video is all over the place shhhit but good

At least the camera work is first rate,

I have an 81. I use Regular Gas.
