Hello:
We have a 1955 DeSoto, a 1956 DeSoto, and a 1959 Chrysler Imperial, and we
run them all on Super Unleaded...find that they ping a bit on regular
unleaded....but no additives.

I have owned my 1950 DeSoto Custom club coupe for 20
years.
During that time, it has always run on unleaded
gasoline without use of
lead or octane boosters.
Earlier this year I opened the engine to
perform a
valve job. I saw the hardened exhaust valve seats, and
no
valve recession.
My DeSoto went back on the road within the last
three
weeks. It has about a tank and half of low-grade
Sunoco, and is
running the best it ever has.
Once I get new tires installed, the
DeSoto will be
taking even longer, faster trips. The only additive
I
will take along is Chemtool, which will help with
carbon
deposits.
