thanks for that, he tends to get a tank of lrp every 3rd or 4th tank and he
does run sweeter on it but becuase of his poor mpg its not cost effective to
use all the time (perhaps rephrase as it is even more bank breaking than
normal landy use!) in the end if it dies it will probably just speed up the
diesel conversion which is pretty inevitable seeing as i want to keep him
for ever and ever!

>>While the exhaust seats (in the block, not the head, just to be pedantic)
are generally considered to be hard enough for unleaded, in the long run the
original valves probably aren't. However if it's being run on leaded most of
the time, there should be more than enough "lead memory" in the valves to
prevent significant damage over a few thousand miles. It would probably be
desirable in the long run to do the conversion, but it shouldn't make much
difference if you don't, so long as you don't miss out on checking the valve
clearances at the prescribed intervals.<<
