MMO
is also highly recommended - and one poster claimed CP repackaged MMO
as air tool oil - so where am I wrong????


Clare,
Marvel Mystery Oil is repackaged ATF.

Air oil is repackaged hydraulic oil.

You got the repackaging associations wrong.

It all works. The "magic" is in being able to sell two ounces for five
bucks of an oil that normally retails for five bucks a quart.

Lloyd, you can use MMO as ATF if you like, but it will get real
expensive when you need to rebuild the transmission. It is a TOTALLY
different composition.


Since the composition of MMO is a trade secret; you have absolutely no way
to validate your claim above.

Two similarities. It is a petroleum based
lubricant, and it is red in colour.


There's an MSDS for Marvel Mystery Oil that says that the boiling point
is 172C. The MSDS for Dexron says that the boiling point is above 315C.
So clearly there's _some_ difference.
