I make a type of MMO using some info gleaned from MSDS (material safety data sheet). My mix is Six parts marine two stroke outboard motor oil, added to Four parts auto transmission fluid, to which add a small amount of Salacylic Acid, (oil of winter green) add the mixture in the same portions as MMO.

Outboard oil may cause carbon buildup if you use too much.....I would stick with good old MMO.
