Petrol in a 1946 Model CO

Hi all, Do any of the forum members have any advice about what petrol to use in my 1946 350cc Civvy CO? I've read contradictory advice on using lead replacement, not using some brands, using bog standard unleaded with no addatives, only using super unleaded as it has better qualities etc.

Anyone have a reliable runner that can tell me what they use?

Cheers, Chris.

p.s. It ran for 2 seconds on easy start last night, the first time in at least 42 years.
