It is not good for the engine if it is the original setup from the 1970's. Lead is needed for lubrication to the valves. A reconditioned engine can use unleaded fuel if the intake and exhaust valves and the seats are replaced.

Can you put 2stroke fuel in an unleaded engine?
NO !! 2 stroke fuel is gas and oil mixed. unless you took it out of a oil injected 2 stroke with i doubt. a 4 stoke engine (car) doesnt need any oil in the gas. (NOT GOOD) you can put 2stroke fuel in an unleaded engine the 2 stroke has oil added to it but will still burn off.most people put 2 stroke in by accident or in an emergency when none other is available,such as running out of fuel.the amount added would be minimal and would be so diluted it will do NO damage to your engine. the GAS used in 2 stroke is same as any other gas , just has small amount of oil added

How do you check to see if the fuel pump is working on your 1983 Cadillac sedan deville?
Get a helper to turn on the ignition without starting the engine. At the same time you listen at the fuel filler door with the fuel cap off. You should hear the pump run for a few seconds and then shut down. If you do not hear the pump check the fuel pump fuse and fuel pump relay. If they are good the pump is defective. If the pump runs and you are not getting fuel to the engine either the fuel filter is clogged or the pump is running but not pumping fuel. Replace the fuel filter and proceed from there.
