Comparison of leaded and unleaded aviation gasoline based on engine performance

The aim of this study is to compare the performance of spark ignition engine using leaded and unleaded aviation gasoline. The leaded and unleaded aviation gasoline used for this study contains the same Motor Octane Number (MON) of 91. The lead content in the existing aviation gasoline is a harmful s...
