Is he advising that for an original engine with 73000 miles on it?

In addition, Steve Hedke at British Pacific tells me that he has seen
several cases of premature piston ring wear, that he attributes to the use
of E10.  We're talking brand new rings worn out in 10,000 miles.  He
recommends adding Marvel Mystery Oil to the fuel as an upper cylinder
lubricant.
