I HAVE A 57 F40 & WAS WONDERING, IF YOU WORK THESE OLD TRACTORS VERY MUCH IS IT WISE TO ADD AN ADDITIVE TO THE GAS BECAUSE OF THE UNLEADED FUEL?//////THANKS DAVE MASON

When they made these tractors there was only unleaded available (in uk anyway) so they don't need an additive. So really if leaded was available in US at that time and it would be used in this engine then maybe you should. Sorry to be so vague about it but I just don't know what you guys had available at that time. This will set the ball rolling I know....lol

For your F-40 (which I think it has a Z-134 engine) You do not have to worry,as it was built with Stellite metal,hardened seats under the exhaust valves. This is fine for Heavy duty use on unleaded fuels. Also (John UK) In the USA I think unleaded gasoline became widespread available about 1972 ,and mandatory in most new cars in 1975.
