SubscriberJust a comment for any one interested, I have run my S1s on ordinary unleaded (always brand name not safway crap) with 1ml of valvesaver to the litre (about) ever since good petrol was taken from the market, no problems yet.
It is true that they do not get used every day but a 12 hour non stop drive happens every now an than.
Remember the engine was designed to run on very low grade fuel not shell ultra something.

Unleaded or even E10 should be fine if you have excluded latex containing items first. Particularly pump diaphragms.Originally Posted by dennisS1
The three places latex (natural rubber)occurs: is the diaphragm in the SU fuel pump; the accelerator pump on the Solex carby; and the fuel hose in between. So the rule is no NOS items from 10 or more years ago, when buying replacements check they are latex free or ethanol safe.
You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

On another note,way off topic Series 1
In the early to mid 90's,we used fuelstar canister's on all our Mitsy work vans on LPG.They all had the 4G63 engine.None ever had an engine problem.Whether the vans actually needed them,i don't know.
The other recomendation was to use valvesaver drip feed system,but they were a PITA to continually top up,where the fuelstar has no maintenance once fitted

I was merely suggesting that is what the people investigating the claims of the product will/would do the check the validity of the claims.
I would neither do the testing nor buy the product. Diesel is cheaper.
