Twinport 1600 motor , what fuel does it run on?
LRP?
What happens when our beloved government pulls the plug on LRP, is there a lead-additive available for unleaded petrol?

A 1600 beetle engine can run leaded or unleaded. I run unleaded but every now and again I fill up with leaded.

Just a quick question... if u running unleaded and wanna switch to leaded, is it okay to mix the fuels... or do u have to wait until the unleaded is almost completely gone...
