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.
