Hi,can't afford to have the heads on my 2.8 Capri converted to unleaded quiteyet, so I'm womdering whether it's best to use LRP or super unleaded with anadditive - Castrol Valvemaster or similar.Can anyone offer any advice?CheersMike

Here the LRP seems to be a bad move to use as its causing problems with the engines. This has just started to filter through and I don't have all the information as yet. Have had problems with a Mini - which had a head job done and it failed with valve/valve guide problems although I did used an additive.Now have been using a good premium unleaded with an additive and so far had no problems in the MG or Mini's. (One of the Mini's has not beenseated.)r

LRP or additive?

No it doesn't - it does precisely nothing. This has been proved over and over again in properly conducted tests and makers of similar products have been prosecuted under the trades description act.

The pellets in *your* tank are also working in *my* Herald, which has done 80,000 miles on unleaded with no problems.
