I have a 1970 Fairlaine, and I am unsure what to do about fuel when the LRP is phased out, what options do I have? Will unleaded run ok without any mods? Is a higher octane fuel a risk or good value? Help

The LRP Fuels are goign to be dissapearing very quickly by the end of this year-it will be harder to find the stuff.
the best solution for your fuel problem is to run a 98 octane fuel (BP - Ultimate ; Caltex - Vortex etc) and then add sum flashlube
