I reckon any modern car will burn pretty much anything of the right
fuel type. The engine management will compenstate for any reluctance
for the fuel to burn by adjusting the fueling and timing on tne fly
to get the best burn it can....

It is not a reluctance to burn that is the problem. It is the tendancy
to clog injectors or carburettor jets.

How does lead in petrol do any of the above?


It doesn't. That simply does in the catalytic converter and, apparently,
contributes to crime in society.

The clogging is a result of by products of the aging process, which is not
specific to AVGAS.

and there was I thinking that crime was down because thanks to Chinese
cheap mass production there's nothing left worth nicking or breaking into,
and instantly updated PDQs make mugging for credit cards pointless anymore.

I take it lower Lead levels leads to the need to take drugs, as that has
risen.

Perhaps Lead is a Muncie suppressor? ;-)
