lead additive

["Quint Villanueva" <Qlv@xxxxxxxxx>]

I use premium gas in my 1953 Imperial and 1949 (pardon the expression)
Cadillac..
I do not use an additive, never have.
Both cars perform very well...no knocks, pings or other kinds of problems,
although I wish I could get better mpg.

If the car doesn't run right, or spark knocks there is something else wrong
that needs to be fixed.

everyother fill up or or once in a while is helpfull or beneficial for the
engine and or performance?? Is it good--or is it just a waste?
