Avgas has more lead than the old leaded auto gas that was sold in the late 70's early 80's. It also has more aromatics than pump gas. The lead scavengers/ detergents used in 100LL are bromide based and nastier than anything in auto gas.
Its also not more refined. What ever that means.
It is more consistent and doesn't contain poor quality streams pump gas does.
Its really stupid to use leaded fuel in hand held equipment.
Im with you on this!
 
News anchor Sam Donaldson used to make almost 6 figures a year for not raising sheep and mohair goats. He has 11,000 acres, so he's not poor. I got paid to stop growing tobacco. I believe my grandfather got paid for not growing something or other.
 
Well looking at it from a global pollution aspect, I thought that we , and most of the world agreed to reduce pollution emissions and then find that some countries allow the use of nott only ethanol free but even leaded fuel,????? We in Europe can only get E5. Orr even E10 in some countries.....
Don't know where you're from, but here in Austria I could get ethanol free gas at the pump. But it still has some percentage of biofuel in it. It's just not ethanol. No idea how it compares to ethanol fuel in small engines or storage time.
