    Finding the right fuel

    Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-Benz Advice Mercedes-Benz 280 Mercedes-Benz 280 Advice Mercedes-Benz 280 1978
    WE HAVE 1966 and 1967 VC Valiants and a 1978 280E Mercedes-Benz, all of which run on lead-replacement fuel. Many service stations don't carry it. What is best to replace it?

    THE Valiants need PULP with an upper-cylinder lubricant such as Valvemaster or Flashlube, which can be found at your local servo. Your Benz should run satisfactorily on PULP with no need for an additive.
