THE ABOVE ASSUMES A STOCK ORIGINAL DISTRIBUTOR -
after 25 years, check what is in there!
FUEL ADDITIVE: I do put Fuel Stabilizer in with the
gas, especially a good idea before storing the car.
If I am using the vehicle as a daily basis, it is
not needed. If you have NOT had head work done,
then running a "lead subsitute" additive is recommended.
