Is Marvel just transmission fluid? It can even be added to your gas
tank to combat engine sludge and wear. Diesel engines benefit even more.
So, it has more benefits than WD40. But, I don't recommmend smoking it
like LDS cuz nobody really knows what is in it. IT IS A MYSTERY!
Actually, I think there used to be a bicycle lube LDS that I used on my
Schwinn in the 60s that supposedly didn't attract dirt like WD40.

marvel mystery oil versus wd40
"...bicycle lube LDS that I used on my Schwinn in the 60s..."
You probably mean LPD 9, a lube sold/used by Schwinn dealers.

marvel mystery oil versus wd40
I used to work in a full service gas station in the early 70s.
(anyone remember them?)
We sold Marvel Mystery Oil and there were a few users
who swore that it was a miracle elixir for their cars.
Better gas mileage, longer lasting engine, all kinds of
benefits.
But, I think these guys had cars that held up well simply
because they took better care of them. Regular oil
changes, clean car, frequent waxing. Maintenance.
Contrasting that is the vivid memory of a guy I knew
casually who came in for a fill up. When I checked
his oil, the dipstick looked like it had been dipped in
black sludge. And it was a quart low.
I asked him "How long has it been since you had an
oil change?"
"Never! I don't believe in oil changes! You don't have
to change the oil in your car, ever! You just add oil
as needed!"
I think he added an engine "as needed" not too long
after that.
