In a well maintained engine that lives on D1/Gen2, SP oils with proper intervals? Nothing. But in a neglected engine, such as the one from video or many others that had a hard life? That's where Dexos oils stand no chance against MMO mile-for-mile. As in - in a neglected engine you will notice improvements taking place as you drive, usually within first few hundred miles. While any Dexos oils or even Euro oils (that are known to be great at clean-up) will take tens of thousands of miles to achieve same results.Not sure what MMO would do different in the oil cleaning versus running a name brand synthetic oil (D1 / Gen 2 , SP) rated oil ?
That stuff should not go into any engine made in the last 20 years.
Have you not read about chlorinated hydrocarbons? Not good to have in combination with a modern oil blend.
The stuff of all those snake oil Motor additives in a can that are all gone from the market now.
I want to love the stuff too . it is lovable - and it smells AWESOME. But my Right hand pulls back my Left from
Dumping The Red Can in to the 710 hole
MMO does have chlorinated hydrocarbons, but this one is the type for cleaning only, not for friction modification.Chlorinated hydrocarbons can coat the insides, and because its acidic can cause sludge to form.
I am not sure if mmo has chlorinated hydrocarbons , but chlorinated hydrocarbons are used to reduce friction.
yes correctMMO does have chlorinated hydrocarbons, but this one is the type for cleaning only, not for friction modification.
There are many types of chlorinated hydrocarbon chemistry and each has a specific application.
MMO was designed to scavenge lead from combustion chambers when fuels contained TEL and when PCMO's did not possess the detergents found in modern engine oils. I do not see any use for it today.
What do you make of the video? The truck in question is a 2001 so it hasn’t run leaded fuel and it has been presumably running pretty modern oil. To me, it appears either the new oil or the MMO knocked some crud loose.MMO does have chlorinated hydrocarbons, but this one is the type for cleaning only, not for friction modification.

Hello Mola: I have the highest respect for your knowledge and contributions over the years, however I believe the chlorinated part of any and all engine additives was removed by the EPA effective 1/1/2017.MMO does have chlorinated hydrocarbons, but this one is the type for cleaning only, not for friction modification.
