I'm not sure it's unleaded, I thought it was LL (Low lead) . . .

Default Are you sure its unleaded
If it is i'm getting in my car and checking out what my local airport has to offer. I thought they only had leaded fuel though.

Default and is it Dye-Free?
most avgas has a green or blue dye added to it

I think it helps diagnose any engine leakdown issues

either way, it doesn't do your fuel system any good

Default I beliveve fuels are dyed for identification purposes;
big fines if you used certain dyed fuels on the street because you don't pay certain taxes for farm/race/av fuels...

Default oh that reminds me, saw a huge banner at a 76 station that read "MTBE FREE".
Now all we need is 93 octane.
