Non-ethynol gas, or gas that WON'T screw up your fuel system.I just put Seafoam in my gas tank instead. I just had the carb rebuilt. I didn't want to screw that up.
It's vintage IMHO, but it hasn't disappeared, it's just harder to find.
As for Seafoam...
I use it a lot at work, for cars that don't get driven on a regular basis.
Actually it improved my streetrod, because I've been running ethynol through it for years.
Thankfully we have 4 stations that sell non-ethynol, and I run that in my wife's car, my lawn equipment, and my streetrod (as soon as I can drive it to one of those stations!). In my wife's car I see an increase of 3-4mpg compared to the regular stuff, same grade btw.
So yes IMHO it's worth the extra 60 cents per gallon for better mpg and to NOT screw up the fuel system.
