Unleaded

[Paulpen]

Heard from Nissan that I should only run my S12 on unleaded as it may damage the engine ?!

True or not chaps

diesel mate, thats the best.

as long as it is 97ron or above

originally nissan said that the S12 can only run on leaded 4 star, ive had my S12 now for 8 years, always run it on unleaded. it wont damage the engine as the valve seats have the inserts same as used in unleaded heads, the only other thing that can cause a prob is the timing, some say you need to reatrd it slightly. i think 2 degrees was the amount, but unsure on this.

most people use tesco 99ron super

It even says unleaded on the inside of the petrol flap
