So you point is that lead scavenging agent isn't needed because there's not that much lead in the 100LL? My curiosity was: What quantity (by weight) of lead is in 100 gallons of 100LL? I picked 100 gallons because I didn't want some small fraction. As it turns out, 2 grams/gallon is not a small fraction. I used the term "actual lead" because I wanted to know the amount of lead left behind if "everything" else were to be distilled away. My side point was: Lead = "ATTACK!" to the Greens ...1 gram, 2 grams, 15 grams, 0.14 grams, doesn't matter to them - it's LEAD!!! [Thanks to Jim L] From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avgas : "Avgas 100LL contains a maximum of 2 grams of lead per US gallon" 1,000 grams (kilo) = 2.2 lbs 500 gallons of 100LL = 2.2 lbs of lead. Now the world make sense to me. Montblack "Hello, Thielert..." http://www.dieselair.com/ Diesel updates for airplanes |
