Default Marvel Lubricating Oil

I think 3-in-1 is like that, but I can't find my can. *I did find a
4-ounce container of Marvel Lubricating Oil. *Among the uses listed on

Small is relative. *Would Marvel Lubricating Oil be good for a furnace
blower?


I'd say it's a bit thin. My walmart has 30wt nondetergent. I'd
probably lean that way if I couldn't find 20wt. Nondetergent also
gets used in things like pressure washers.
