Greetings folks from Canberra Australia
Have just read Asgeir Nesoen's posting about valve seats and the use of Kalium.
In the forced changed from leaded to unleaded one should not be too greatly
concerned about Valve seats, but one should be concerned about why leaded was
put in fuel in the first place and what has been used to replace lead.
Question, leaded was used to increase the octane ratings without which fuel has
a rating in the low 30's.
So what has been used to replace lead?, all the nasties known to man, benzene,
toulene etc. all the high cancer causing substances.
This way we will not have to worry about our kids and grandkids being dumb
though supposed lead poisoning, all we will have to worry about is whether they
die of cancer.
have a nice day!!!!!!!!!
regards Brian
