Re: "Lead" Fuel Additives?
I have a semi related question about gasoline. Has the method of posting octane rating at the pump changed since the 60's? It seems that Sunoco, Amaco and others major oil companies all offered high octane gas in the high 90's to low 100's. Now using the (R + M)/2 octane calculation, 92 is high octane. When all gas became unleaded did removing the lead additives decrease octane ratings that much? Just wondering and though you guys might know.
Safety Fast,
Dave
