Re: [T3] [Fwd: domed pistons]


Anyone remember Esso Golden Extra? 101 Octane (maybe different
rating system than these days).  That's about all our '64 Variant
1500S (Squareback) would run on.
Don't forget, on these engines you have to remove a plug lead to
time correctly with the engine running, as the advance curve begins
below normal tick-over.
