Unleaded fuel
Unleaded fuel
Hi when I purchased my 411 last summer I asked the previous owner if I could run the car on unleaded fuel. He said it was ok due to this type of vehicle being designed for the American market, and they had introduced unleaded. Is this fact or fiction???

All VW air-cooled engines produced after August 1967 can run on unleaded fuel with no modification.

They reckon older ones are unlikely to have a problem due to the lead impregnated on the seats over many years. They run hotter than water-cooled heads anyway, so use hardened inserts.
