Henri,
In my 65 I run unleaded fuel, and the motor has never been rebuilt. The lead
was only added to lubricate the valve seats, because they were not hardened
back then. I would tend to think that after 37 years of heat cycling the
engine, the seats would pretty much be hardened. Most of the people I know
with stock, ie., never rebuilt, engines in their old cars don't bother with
the lead additive. How are the Netherlands this time of year?
