I used MMO during my 'sprint car' days ....
MMO can be used to 'top oil' a gasoline engine and also be added to the crankcase oil. The results the I had were an engine would last quite a bit longer between total tear-down and rebuild. How much saved ... 5%-10% maybe. I continued the practice for almost 40 years with my 'daily drivers' and routinely get 200K Mi between 'bottom jobs' (valve jobs, etc at ~60-80K). Especially MMO in the fuel seems to better lubricate the intake valve stems and also provides better lubrication for the piston rings/grooves. Less sticking piston rings means less adverse cylinder wall wear. MMO seems to keep the piston ring grooves VERY clean and with no carbon buildup deep in the grooves. In the crankcase, MMO seems to also prevent deposit formation although normal oil has alll these additives/surfactants. All this is a 'hunch' based on long term usage and rebuilding my own engines ...nothing more. Will MMO double the life of an engine? certainly not ... I'll take 5%. I do know that an engine that has 'frozen' (piston rings rusted in their grooves and sticking to the cylinder walls) due to long term junkyard storage, etc. can be brought back to life without breaking the rings, etc. by a simply 'soak' with MMO, then simply hand turning the engine .... better than penetrating, etc. oils. Im not concerned with injection pump wear .... just like when lead was removed from gasoline that reduction caused a lot of valve seats in older engines to be severely hammered due to the loss of 'cushion' the lead provided on the fave seat faces. The engine manufacturers simply changed to hardened valves and seat - problem solved. Until the ultra low sulphur fuel really starts to show adverse pump wear ... which will immediately also bring a solution .... I'll simply wait and see. As regards STABILIZERS for diesel fuel .... just be sure that you dont have any water in the bottom. This condensation BS is simply BS as unless you totally SEAL the fuel from the atmosphere water WILL enter the fuel by chemical/physical equilibrium and thats NOT dependent on how full or empty a tank is. Condensation only means that water is already IN the fuel, water is the medium for biological growth bilogical growth probably the CHIEF source of 'problems'. I empty my tanks for the winter and simply burn the fuel in my home oil burner (I run a desiccant water vapor trap on the tank vent line to prevent water uptake ... but still its better to empty the tank (so I dont have need to regenerate the desiccant). If you think that empty fuel tanks magically 'condense water' .... It only continues to validate that the USA public schools need to be sold off/closed down. Otherwise if the water is prevented or removed, the fuel oil will stay stable for perhaps another million or so years --- if you have a 'clean' tank to begin with. Gasoline in contrast sours quickly and rapidly forms gums and varnishes usualy within a month or two of production/storage .... and you definitely need a stabilizer for gasoline. If the diesel oil is 'dry', no need to stabilize as relative few particles will 'grow' and agglomerate into larger and larger particles .... all due to the fungals and bacteria that thrive in the WATER (free water and emulsified water) within the fuel. I use a desiccant trap to prevent water vapor uptake and have a water knockout pot in my onboard polishing filter system ... NO water problems and simply dont need 'stabilizers nor biocides'. If you fill the tank and the tank has any water in the bottom, you're just adding fresh 'food' for the resin forming fungals and (pseudomonas) bacteria. Also remember that in wintertime the temps are low which will retard bio-growth .... the 'problem' occurs in spring and summer. Keep it simple and unemotional (snake oil, etc.) ... this is not a 'parsing contest' of never-important shysters or politicians, its just simple 'chemistry'. ;-)
