RE: Lead substitute. I don't think you need it either. Valve seat recession is mostly a product of engine speed, e.g. it will happen faster on a high speed engine than a low speed one. Plus, you aren't going to put a lot of hours on that unit anyway, nor work it 8 hours a day, five days a week for years on end. With a hobby tractor, the owner would be long dead before any significant damage is done RE: Motor oil or ATF in the fuel, I'm agin it! Im my experience, it just makes carbon deposits. I've never heard of adding 2-stroke oil though. They have some lubricity additives that actually might be benificial and not leave many deposits. Still, speaking generically, it's unnecessary, IMHO. Valve stem lubrication comes from the lube oil inside the engine. We already discussed seat issues. Save you money for stuff lots more cool.
