Guys.. most of the cars should use unleaded petrol.

But here in Sri lanka we use 90 octane (with led), is this good for vehical? Isn't this affect the Smoke test?

When did 90 octane petrol become leaded? Leaded petrol went out of style here 20 years ago...you might be able to find some in Africa though.
