Never used it in the Z, but I used it religiously in my 93 RX7. I added 4oz of MMO to ever tank of gas I ever put in the car for the almost 3 years I owned it. Engine never crapped out on me even at 365rwhp, but it finally died due to coolant jacket failure (completely not related). If someone finds that it would be a benefit in the Z, I would definately use it again.

and gringott...thats awesome lol

MM is used as oil in the SU carbs on 240Zs. I also use it as air tool oil in the shop.

I have not heard of anyone using it in new cars. I have heard of guys running diesels, adding a little bit to the fuel to make up for the reduction in sulpher that the EPA has mandated.

I used to use MM in my SUs but found it to thin, went to synth 40wt. get a little better accelerator pump action and more consistent piston rise with temperature changes.

I don't use MM for anything any more.
