Default '83 Capri newbie Q's

i finally got myself a capri, ive wanted one for years. I feel really daft now cos i just bought a 2.8i and i realised i don't know if they run on unleaded or does it need an additive, i admit i am completely clueless on this!

I ran mine on unleaded, no issues. As long as you dont tow 80% of the time or thrash it you will be fine.
