Well, at the risk of starting up another Thread That Wouldn't Die, we in AZ are in the process of losing all our leaded pumps. It won't be illegal until Jan 1 but the major companies are converting t

Well, my ex-Spit got a no-lead head during overhaul, but it wasn't really any more expensive than a valve job for all new hardened seats and new guides. After that, it ran fine (10:1 pistons) on anyt

I've always run my TR-3 on unleaded premium, and I bought it in 1978. I've got about 70K miles on unleaded gas, and had no obvious recession problems in that time. one data point anyway, John Lye rjl

After approx. the same mileage on very low lead and lead-ersatz petrol, the exhaust valve seats on my 150bhp 2.5 PI were pretty well burnt, to the extent that one exhaust valve har a crack in it. The

Perhaps; however burnt exhaust valves are most often caused by setting the exhaust valve clearance too tight or by too lean a fuel mixture. Tighter clearance will make the engine less noisy but allo

I check/reset the clearances once a year - they should be OK. Regretfully, I never made a note of which way the clearances went, however. I distinctly remember *some* of them increasing due to rocker

The recommendation I get from the "experts" is to set the valves on the loose side (increased clearance). That may not give maximum power but should be best for valve life - at least that makes sens

The voltmeter consists of a bimetallic spring connected to the "hand", just like an ordinary thermometer. In addition, there is a heating coil wound around it, made of resistance wire. The higher the
