That makes sense. Guess I misunderstood that 100LL cuts life of the plugs in half and that twice the "leaded" life of 25 - 30 hrs could be expected from unleaded gas. That's still only 50-60 hrs. You have to change plugs every oil change? I've never heard this happening anywhere else ... Jim S.

Jim, That answer is easy, very few others are running extended hours running 100 LL ! I have run 100 LL in some racing engines as a cheaper source of higher octane fuel, but those engines might only see 35 hours in 1/2 a season, not in a few weeks of flying. While Lyco pilots dread it I will welcome the unleaded avgas.
