hi guys just a quick Q

what will a low leaded fuel do to a none leaded car

dad works ford ....errr.....lets say a fuel company workin on the trucks and that as if by magic some of this fuel ends up in the back of the car dont no how, hehe

the cossie is now runnin and drinkin more than the locals down the pub

to fill it up costs over 70 squid and im only a apprentice on shit money so dad said hed help me out with some airoplane fuel lol

aka avgas 100LL (100 0ctan low lead)

Lead will of course kill a cat(if fitted) but otherwise will be fine, as still higher octane than pump gas.
