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.
No it does not. The only engine in the 1988 Cadillac De Ville was the 4.5 Digital fuel injected engine. The 4.5 engine is a 2 valve per cylinder overhead valve (not overhead cam) engine. It was a good engine but not in the power category as the Northstar.
Yes, your 1981 Porsche 924 can run on unleaded fuel, as the model was designed to accommodate both leaded and unleaded fuels. However, it's important to ensure that the engine's components, particularly the valves, are in good condition to handle unleaded fuel, as the absence of lead can lead to increased wear. If your vehicle has been regularly maintained and free from leaded fuel for some time, it should perform well on unleaded fuel available in the UK. Always consult your owner's manual or a professional mechanic for specific recommendations.
Regular Unleaded Many newer and forced induction vehicles suggest using higher octane fuel to avoid premature detonation of the fuel while it is being compressed in the engine.
Yes, Lead is good. Your valves could be damaged by using unleaded. Try http://www.batterystuff.com/fuel-treatments/OS6q.html This is real tetraethyl lead, the good stuff.
Yes you can use 87 octane unleaded in a 1977 Yamaha XS750, that fuel was the good octane in those days
all American made carbs run off of unleaded fuel only if its a special tpe of carburetor that runs off say propane or other types of fuel then it would be recommended to not put gas in your carb.
It's a good engine, just bad to work on.
Using a Diesel fuel conditioner would be good for your engine and would not be bad at all.
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
The 1996 Cadillac STS has a fuel tank capacity of approximately 18 gallons. This allows for a good range between fill-ups, especially considering its V8 engine. Always refer to the owner's manual for the most accurate specifications.
The 302 was a good engine - if you have a massive gas tank in your boat. It is a fuel hog.
not a good idea.
