Yes, you can use them in cars that run unleaded too....they last as long if not longer than 'unleaded' sensors; they are just MUCH more tolerant of Good Ol' Fashioned REAL HIGH-OCTANE Leaded Fuel !

So if i get these "lead friendly" O2 sensors can i run leaded fuel, or will i have to change other things like spark plugs or other sensors.

Stock sensors are rated to operate 50 hours with leaded fuel. The "lead tolerant" sensors are rated to operate 100 hours. I saw a magazine test of the Denso lead-tolerant sensors, and one of them failed immediately on exposure to leaded fuel....... ooooopppps.
