Title: Unleaded Petrol - 1979 Beta Coupe Post by: dmitcham on 02 January, 2010, 09:06:57 PM Hi
Please can anyone advise on the use of unleaded petrol in a 1979 Beta 2000 Coupe? That is, is it Ok with addatives or not? I've seen conflicting advice and wonder if anyone has any real (long trerm?) experience. Title: Re: Unleaded Petrol - 1979 Beta Coupe Post by: cheeky monkey on 17 January, 2010, 03:56:15 PM Hi
have been running a 79' beta on unleaded with an additive. I tend to go for the super unleaded 98+octane and add Castrol Valvemaster plus. I dont think theres any definitive answer as to which brand of either fuel or additive is best but I have been fine with the above for many years now. Just dont start mixing in different additives in the same tank of fuel cheers G Title: Re: Unleaded Petrol - 1979 Beta Coupe Post by: fay66 on 17 January, 2010, 06:55:49 PM When the report on this first came out it was advised that once you start on one additive, stay with it and don't mix as they have different chemical makeups, I've always used Millers VSP in My Fulvia 2c.

It pinks with most standard unleaded and Total's super unleaded. BP super unleaded is also OK. I feed it some Redex lead replacement every couple of tank fulls. This has worked OK for 10K over 3 years.
