Leaded Gasoline

Bring back leaded gasoline. My 73 Maverick worked much better in the 70's before unleaded gasoline. Now it hardly runs at all and it burns more fuel too. I can hardly afford to drive it to work anymore.

Put the lead in it yourself, I hear people only jumped out the 4th-floor windows.

They were talking about taking the lead out of avgas this year. Currently you can get it still. It runs very hot as it's 100 octane.

Good idea. I will try shot gun pellets.
