I'm curious. I'm sure a lot of gas selection comes to personal preference, but I'm wondering what some of the engine builders and long-time techs recommend for the Type IV engines that we run. Would your selection depend on the year? (i.e. smog pump vs. no smog pump?) carbs vs. carbs? brand? octane? additives?
I'd love to hear what you guys have to say on the subject. Thanks, Carlos |

You can use it if you like--as long as your car does not have a cataltytic converter. (Or an O2 sensor, which would be an aftermarket addition in a 914.) Unleaded is fine, too.
