My first plane was a Cessna 120. The A&P who did the pre-purchase for me
said he thought it had a valve not behaving properly, and so recommended
I put MMO in the fuel to see if it would help. I flew that old girl
until the next annual inspection, adding the MMO every time I fueled. At
the annual, we had to top that cylinder, so the MMO did no good :-)
Often wish I'd never sold that plane...
