What you think of marvel mystery oil? Is it good for cleaning?

The most important thing is to keep the oil clean. I don't care if it's $0.99/quart Walmart dino oil or $10/quart Redline Synthetic - dirty oil is death to any engine.
Marvel mystery oil? Never heard of it. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Just follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule and you'll be golden.
And if I had to do it again (swapping from an auto trans to a manual), I don't know that I would. The performance and driving enjoyment is great, but you'd never mistake it for a factory-installed gearbox.
