I personally would save my money. A gas tractor needs a valve job every 5000 hours or so, and at that time put in hardened valve seats if there is a problem. You would be lots of money ahead not spending money on additives, and waiting for the overhaul. Most likely, your tractor has been running unleaded for a couple decades now anyhow. In the old days, tractors were designed to run on a rather poor grade of fuel anyhow, so it is no big deal to the engine. The only minor issue is a slight increased wear on the valves on some machines, and this can be dealt with more cheaply by upgrading the engine when the time comes. --->Paul
