Re: IML: Lead Additive



My 63 came out of San Jose back in the late eighties where I beleive leaded was not available years before that . The car is in England where unleaded is the norm , anything else being hard to get . My car has Castrols lead replacement additive added most times to the fuel and I run the car up to and over a 100mph frequently on the highway , car runs fine and I have covered well over 35,000 like this over 15 years , engine NEVER "pinks". Last engine rebuild back in the seventies in San Jose .

Just run a quart of ATF in the gas tank every once in awhile. lt will provide a cushion for the valve. Had a machinst tell me this. Tried it and it worked in my Super Bee.
