Imperialists,
I will not quite date myself here, but let us just
say I wasn't quite buying gas when my '56 Imperial was ushered into this
world. That being said, I was wondering about the quality of
oil, fuel and the octane's available then. For when I fuel up Turq, I
am told I am a "mad scientist", but my point is she runs beautifully on it and I
was wondering what the other drivers use in their tanks and crankcase.
My typical mix per tankful (for I always run
her down to just below 1/4) of gas:
1) Fill with 93 octane
2) Marvel Mystery as recommended per gallons
3) Pint of dry gas,
and for oil, I use high mileage 20w-50, changed
every 2500 miles, with 1/2 quart of Marvel making up the last volume of the
required amount.
