we are having an off-forum discussion (opps) about how I might have accidentally run leaded race fuel. I haven't noticed a big drop in mileage, no o2 codes. I thought running leaded would have taken out my o2 sensor being it'* age (original).
If I did run a gallon or two of leaded, how long would the effects show up in the oil? It'* been 1 oil change from the last race.

I sent someone (I think it was Cheetah) into town to get more, can't remember if I used any of it (someone else needed some) and don't remember if I got a gallon at the track.
Hell, I can't remember yesterday, don't make me remember that far back.

As far as running leaded fuel for a race, I wouldnt even though it might give me the advantage over the competitor. I would be afraid of F'n something up!.
