RE: lead or no lead
JP-5 is a deisel fuel. Has a very high flash point, which is why the Navy and the Marine Corps use it on ships. I don't think you could use it in a motor designed for gasoline...your buddy with the deisel should be OK, though, I've refueled all sorts of vehicles in Iraq from my CH-53E, we were giving them JP-5. Of course, they are all deisel engines.
