    80/87 aviation gas is equivalent to regular leaded gas, old fashion variety.
    Neither has ethanol, to my knowledge.

    Avgas: no ethanol - correct. Otherwise equivalent to regular mogas - no.
    Has 4 to 10x the lead in it as standard leaded mogas had. Avgas 100LL has 4x
    that. I think the EPA boys would frown on using leaded avgas in boats.
    Also, has lower vapor pressure and might cause starting problems in colder
    conditions. But avgas is good, highly controlled stuff and VERY stable in storage.
