    Best gasoline to use in a M38A1

    Yes aviation gas is still leaded in some grades !! The best bet is to run the Rgeular Unleaded and add a lead subtitue into the tank . THAT ENGINE WILL HAVE TROUBLES WITH THE CARB IF YOU RUN ETHANOL FOR TO LONG !! IT WILL DRY OUT THE RUBBER AND NEOPREME PARTS AND CAUSE PROBLEMS !! Remember...
