It has been running on unleaded fuel for close to 40 years.
The "perils" of unleaded fuel are largely overblown. Truth is it takes a long time to erode non-hardened seats, and many manufacturers were shipping their engines with hardened valve seats long before it was "necessary."
Further, "lead additives" are snake oil. They contain no lead, and whatever goop is in them does not replace the lead's function.

To support my experience, Taryl Fixes All did an 18-month study on 7 different fuel preservatives, and none of them lasted any longer than straight pump gas.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
