Effects of four levels of TEL on efficiency and life of available hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide catalyst were investigated; fuels were base Iodolene with no added lead and blends containing 0.5, 1.5 and 3.0 ml TEL/ gal; eight Fords were equipped with 289-CID nonemission controlled 2-V engines unmodified, except for lean carburetor and catalytic exhaust system; each pair of vehicles operated on one of four fuel blends; exhaust emissions were monitored at 3000 mi intervals during accumulation of 18,000 mi; TEL in fuel adversely affected rate of warm up, ability of catalyst to remove hydrocarbons from exhaust and accentuated differences in performance between front and rear converters as mileage was accumulated; other findings.
