the lead replacement petrol used here in the West doesn't appear to be as good as the old leaded petrol.  There has been reported difficulties with starting, idling and general running off colour.  It is from all accounts premium unleaded with an additive to lubricate valve seats.  I have taken to using BP racing 100 (I think that's the name of the fuel), available from some BP service stations as this is avgas, high octane and highly leaded.
