There was a lot more sulfur in the older fuels that came out the same time the lead did. Burning the sulfer in the engine made sulferous oxide which dissolved in the water from combustion made sulfuric acid. Now exhausts also run hotter because of burning lean that reduces condensation. The tail pipe on my 86 F150 still disappears about every 3 years. Gerald
