thanks

 

i think the lead would hurt your damage your o2 sensors. Thats all i know that it would do. I don't know about motor performance

 

its not going to "hurt" anything but will shorten the life of the o2 sensor and clogg the cat (if you have one).

DO NOT use 100LL in your car. Aside from killing your O2 sensor and messing up your plugs, your car won't run very well, and the LL fuel will leave all kinds of gunk in your motor, mixed or not. If you want more octane, use octane booster.

 

You'd be better off buying race gas. Why do you want to run aviation gas?

 

ahh it would come freeeee so i had to ask..lol

In addition to ruining you cat and O2 sensors quickly, it also doesn't have the distillation curve as gasoline used in automobiles. An airplane runs it engine at a constant speed for long periods of time whereas a car does not. I believe ercracingfuels.com has info on that.
