What is the consequence of usage of leaded petrol, in a vehicle equipped with catalytic converter?
The type of fuel has no role in its functioning and hence no significant consequence.
Particulate matter is also removed along with the toxic substances in the exhaust.
Inactivation of catalytic converter as lead in the petrol corrodes the catalyst.
Hydrocarbons are converted into carbon dioxide and water in an efficient manner.
Motor vehicles equipped with catalytic converter should use unleaded petrol because lead in the petrol inactivates the catalyst.
