I have back to back UOA's (without MMO/with MMO in fuel) on one of my vehicles that shows an increase in P by 200ppm using MMO as directed. This vehicle was a fuel dilutor (no longer own), so this was interesting to me. The only other variable was switching from Chevron Supreme to Shell V-Power fuel (with MMO). The reduction in Pb and Cu wear pleased me, but I've filed away the increase in P for further consideration and evaluation.
Here is a link to the latest one they have:

It doesn't go as in depth as one I read a while back that led me to believe that there were cat-harming chemicals in the product. I think (don't quote me), that Terry Dyson confirmed this as well.

So basically it's entire life it had MMO in the gas. There were times when MMO was in the gas tank and being fed via the Inverse Oiler. That van will soon be 22 years old and has the original cat converter. I have a 93 Aerostar with 173,000 miles on it, I bought it with about 52,000 miles on it. I never changed the 02 Sensor, or the cat converter. Both vehicles run well, very well, and pass the PIA NYS inspection along with the sniffer test.
Bottom line, don't worry about MMO ruining anything, use it as suggested. I've found in smaller displacement engines a dose slightly less than they suggest might lead to better mpgs. Experiment with it! The product works! Keep us updated on your results.
BTW your cat converter as well as your engine should be kissing the little Gremlin in your picture, because MMO is helping them live a longer life. Maybe you can photoshop that
Thank you, this is exactly the information I was looking for. The picture I drew with the "Goblin" is more for Mori's benefit. I was giving him a hard time in another thread and thought I would post it here for S&G's.
