T&T: 100LL

[JHWardJr at aol.com]

this is avgas and has 2.0g/gal lead, 4x that in 80 octane fuel and over 10x 
 that of leaded regular mogas (no longer available).  Besides the pollution 
 caused by the lead (let your conscience guide you), there is a possibility 
of  lead fouling the spark plugs and rings at the exhaust port if the 
combustion  chamber temps are not hot enough.  Two stroke plugs run cooler to  
prevent detonation, which makes it worse.  Maybe try a little first.   Alcor 
makes TCP to improve scavenging, but I do not know if it will work  in a 
marine two stroke.
 
I would not do it.  Buy an ethanol fuel additive instead.   Jim
