Thought i'd just run a poll to see who is running standard unleaded fuel..

Might as well post the level of work your engine has had done or whether it's stock....

I run plain unleaded fuel in my mini

It has the head modified to suit unleaded fuel, so I dont run any additives.

98 octane and flash lube.
The 1275 will be converted to unleaded, though I'll still run it on the high octane stuff.

I fed mine some NOS octane boost once. Bloody waste of time & $$. It went better when I refilled with plain 98... :wink:
