Unleaded Petrol

["Ian Baird" <Ian@domain.elided>]

Hi All

With regard to unleaded  petrol and our stags.

It has now been confirmed in the S.O.C. magazine, that the stag 3.0L engine
was designed to run on unleaded.

This has been confirmed by Jim Parkinson, Chief Engineer for design and
developement of all Triumph and Rover engines, upto 1976.

The only thing he says is that the later MKII engines may need there timing
retarded, but for the rest of us MKI drivers, it's safe for unleaded
driving.

So maybe this will put an end to the rumours of valve seat and valve
deterioration, and expensive none essential modifications.

So stuff this countries government and there policies and go green, and save
money.
