As I said Ron, I have been driving my '28 Essex exclusively on unleaded

since doing the motor up 18 years ago, and have not touched the it in

that time. I do around 5000 miles a year in it. I checked the

tappets last year, and they were still the same as when I did the motor.

The only trouble you are likely to experience with unleaded is with a

high compression motor driven at high r.p.m., with high valve spring

pressure, and run at high temperature. None of these criteria fit your

Hudson.
