How critical is it for these old engines to be fueled with lead additives? Is the overall performance diminished if only using an 87 octane with nothing added? I've been running my 235 for a year now

I am not by any means trying to lead anyone to believe that I am a mechanic, but this is my experience. I bought my 56 in late 95, drove it almost everyday for 3+ years using 92 and 93 octane fuel.

My $.02 on octane/lead; Higher octane is needed to combat detonation. Lead is needed for valve, especially exaust valve, lubrication. Confusing because lead is also a cheap octane booster. You need h

Mike is very probably right about lead and lubrication, but I can't see how oil can lube a exhaust valve in the upper guide with cylinder temps as high as they get. An aircraft IA Mechanic told me th

I gotta go with Gene on this one. With cyl temps above 1800 Deg F there is no oil to lube the valves! The lead coats the valve faces and seats and keeps them from sticking to each other. Newer engin

With the attitude of "don't fix it if it ain't broke" (re: your 235), considering many on the road today have already been in service for 40+ years, it could be quite a while before you install that
