Trev,

Like all things molly coating does not last forever, that said my Commander engine was remollied in 2016 and since then I have completed 25k miles so far so good.

If your engine is running OK it will idle and restart when hot, will accelerate strongly then I would leave it alone and just keep a good eye on how its performing.

Hi Trev,
only on water cooled rotories can one expect high mileage of 100,000+ after mollying.
If memory serves,my own Classic sorely needed re-mollying after about 50,000 and should have been done about 10,000 miles earlier (according to Malk Stanly Esq who was the chief mechanic for the Derby Police rotories)but I expect other air-cooled owners will chime in with their own experience,J.B.
