As for the other post - i was warned it would only run on leaded fuel,
which is what it has in it at the moment. I guess when i need to get
some more fuel i'll have to find somewhere which still does LRP.


What sort of engine is it - a side valve one, like
on lawn mowers? If so, the valve will seat on the
cast iron block, and you must have leaded fuel, or
use unleaded with an addative (these are widely
available).
