: Hi Joe
: My veiw is to put unleaded in and put the
: money you save in a jar, if the valves do
: have seat recession then use the money you
: have saved toward the cost of having hardened
: seats fitted. The likelyhood of vsr is fairly
: small on an engine that has several years of
: lead impregnation, and work hardening, though
: it is not impossible.
: Alternatively, you could use Lead Replacement
: Petrol, try to stick to one brand of petrol,
: different brands use different lead
: substitutes. Do not use Additives with LRP,
: they can react and cause problems.
