Fuel additives- lead replacement
« on: July 26, 2010, 11:33:19 AM »
Now Ive got my 400 back together Ill be off for the MOT shortly, once Ive taken it for a few crafty runs and sorted out any obvious problems. One thing occured to me- do I need to put Redex additive in (the one with the lead)?

No.
They run perfectly well on unleaded (and were designed that way in the 70's)
