Unleaded fuel in 80 EuroS - should I add something?
My Euro 80S does not have a catalyzer (and sounds great). But, since leaded fuel is no longer available in Europe, what should I do? Add something, leave alone?
I have an old Triumph convertible, and the advice there is not to bother with any additives. Apparently, those engines build up a protective coat on the valves, which means you can go unleaded for a long, long time, once they have have drunk enough lead earlier.
What is the advice for an early 928 in Europe?

Thats great. The previous owner had been using some swedish additive, which I didn't like the look of, so its nice to be able to drop that.
Thanks for the answers.
