The dangerous compound that comes from unleaded fuels when burned is benzene. An active carcinogen.
It is not tested in emissions control.
If benzene mixes with heated oil it then forms a nerve gas that can be fatal.
The dangers are low but higher than that of the inert baked lead that used to be present. Lead in fuel was much more dangerous to those working in
refineries than it ever was in the environment.

Hi
Had about a 1986 Hi Lux, it ran unleaded but no cat from the factory. Everything will kill you, just got to try to avoid what you can. I reckon the
new scurge will be brain tumors or cancer from mobile phones. Ive lost some of my hearing from driving noisy VWs. When the dof dof boys go deaf will
they need louder music?
