Re: What Lead Additive is best by brand
For the small engines I use a combo of Marvels Mystery oil and Sta-bil. In my cars I use just the Marvels. I'm in California, so the actual lead additive is not available as far as I know

Re: What Lead Additive is best by brand
YOu're right, not a lead additive, but lead is a quase lubricant and the marvels fills that gap somewhat. Like I said, I don't see lead additives on the California shelves. I'd have to take a trip over to Reno and pick up some Lucas brand stuff.

Re: What Lead Additive is best by brand
You will not find any additive that contains lead . Are you using aviation fuel since it’s the only fuel I know of that still contains lead .

Re: What Lead Additive is best by brand
You can only buy lead substitutes, not actual lead additives
