    Chain tightness/sprocket

    New Tecumseh H35

    Hi, I recently received a new H35. 70’s vintage in the dark gray/black style. Not the original white but it’ll work for mine. Can I just use unleaded gas? Or add a lead additive? These motors weren’t Engineered to run on the gas we have now. Thx!!! Andy

    Foremost Golden Pinto color?
