Yeah, the original post has to be the most poorly informed and off target post in this thread.

Leaded gas should never be burned in a turbine or for that matter any engine not specifically called for it. I've known motorcycle owners who do it, the spark plug, cylinder head, & piston wind up covered in a layer of lead




Lead deposits happen for aviation engines too. Wouldn't surprise me if at some point after leaded fuel is gone, engine manufacturers start to increase TBO intervals.
