lead in the fuel actually clogges the O2-sensor causinf erratic reading and eventually back-up mode.

but there is an oxygen sensor available for the south-american market that runs for about 50k miles with leaded fuel in a small engine.

as at your favourite Rochester consultant (now Delphi?) for the 1.6l OPEL engine's sensor.
