Believe it or not - Marvel Mystery Oil fixed my valve hang-ups.

Frank Condelli, of the STEBRO MUFFLER FAME, said: "put a bottle of Marvel
Mystery Oil (MMO) in the gas AND PUT ONE IN THE OIL AS WELL" (my shouting, not
his).

What? in the oil?

I did it, after about 500 miles (Frank says that is too far), I drained out the
oil with all the black crude released by the MMO, refilled with Mobil 1, and
changed the filter of course with a real VW filter of course.

No more valve problems.

Your mileage may be different.
