Unleaded gas WILL ruin the valve seats of early engines made before about 1970 if they are run hard. I have a 1960 Chev 283 engine that was ruined because of that. Had to put later heads on it. I would think the lead additive isn"t neaded if you just putt-putt around. And it certainly isn"t needed to improve the octane for a tractor.
