Which of the following categories of gasoline has the highest lead susceptibility ?
Correct answer: A. Straight run gasoline
- A. Straight run gasoline
- B. Platinum reformed gasoline
- C. Catalytical cracked gasoline
- D. Polymer gasoline
Explanation
Straight-run gasoline generally responds most strongly to tetraethyl lead because its low-octane paraffinic components gain more from lead inhibition of knocking. Catalytically cracked and reformed gasolines already contain more high-octane olefins or aromatics and therefore show lower lead susceptibility.
