I just bought a bottle of Lead Additive at
Advance Auto, which says on the bottle “for older cars which need leaded
gas”. Anyone have any experience with this product?
I guess my choices for the 1952 Imperial
are: Marvel Mystery Oil, ATF, or this stuff. Online voting begin!!!
Seriously though, thanks,

Unleaded Gas: MMO vs. ATF
I don't know about running a qt of oil
thu the tank but ATF works real well because it is a high detergent and helps
coat the valves seat like leaded gas use to do.

On
my 1956 Imperial w/354 Hemi/Torqueflite 3 speed combo, I run a Marvel
Mystery Oil blend through the fuel tank at every fill-up according to the specs
on the bottle and have had great luck with it [I use it as well in the motor
oil] and change the oil quite often, every 1500 miles. I wonder, though,
if it is providing the same degree of 'engine maintenance' that the
ATF does/would do with a periodic run through. Any thoughts?

like the idea of running a quart of oil

while. I have found that it does improve performance.
