Great thank you!

Just got a 89 Toyota corolla station wagon 189,000 miles on it and it runs fine. Any recommendations on what weight I should use? Mostly city driving maybe some highway but not a lot. Used to be my father in laws great running little car. Oh its a 4 cylinder carburetor no FI Thanx Dean

I have been using it in my front wheel bearings, tie rods and ball joints for a year now no problems. I have to change my u-joints soon I will use it in them as well so far everything is very smooth and I have not had to re-grease yet it seems to be hanging on pretty good.

Oh I had one other question, Could I use MMO in a 91 Volvo 240? it has a 4 cylinder motor and I have been doing some searching here and I will start using 15-40 HDEO at some point as soon as I get my hands on some.

Yes so far I am very happy with MMO it has worked, it took a little time but I can say it has made an improvement in the way my motor runs and the ticking is almost gone. With 189K on my truck as of today I didnt expect much other than the ticking would stop but it has made it run smoother after...

@Spyder7 So should I keep the PYB 5-30 with MMO in for the whloe OCI? or change it out by in 1.5k, this is my second OCI with MMO and it seems to be improving. I can say this my motor seems to rev much smoother now it was kind of straining a little above 3k but now seems a lot more "free". The...

Ok changed the oil today it was black I have the filter I will post some pics after I cut it open. Started it up and let it idle for a few minutes and there is no ticking. The only change is that I went from 1 quart of MMO with 4 quarts of Castrol 10-30 to 1 quart of MMO and 4 quarts of Pennzoil...

I was at the parts store buying my oil to change this weekend and I picked up some lucas fuel additive (it was on sale) added it to half a tank this morning before work. The ticking is still present and I am at about 2100 miles since my last oil change with MMO. It has not gone back to as loud...

I changed the PCV yesterday new motorcraft part from the dealer.

Ok so just cut around the seam, I got it yea I'm going to let it drain for a few days. I think I will take Spyders advise and do it at 2500 I am interested to see what is in the filter. Thank you for all the help! Dean

I am just about ready to to empty it out I am almost at 1100 miles ticking is still there. I have a question how are you guys cutting open your filters? hacksaw? tin snips? I want to see if I can cut it open to see whats in there just wondering how. Thanks everyone, Dean Oh and I am...

Isnt using MMO like doing a flush? sorry for the noob question but I thought it did the same thing only slower.

I have a 1997 Expolrer OHV motor 180,000 miles the previous owner didnt take very good care of it and I have done most of the things that need to be done on a Explorer with this many miles, intake gaskets, IAC etc. I have had a ticking sound at startup and when warm that increases with engine...
