Merc doing well

I drive a 1978 Mercedes-Benz 280SE, to which in 1997 I had fitted a Fuelstar fuel conditioner that allowed me to use unleaded petrol. I have done 275,000km, 120,000km using unleaded, and I have experienced absolutely no problems at all. I would have easily recouped the initial cost of $340 plus about $80 to have it fitted.

Thanks for your comments, Neil. I wonder if you would have had the same results using unleaded without the Fuelstar.
