Leaded Gasoline for Use in Farm Equipment, Boats and Trucks Over 3856 kg
The Regulations have an ongoing exemption for gasoline used in engines that power farm equipment (tractors, combines, swathers or other farm machinery), boats or trucks with a gross weight rating greater than 3856 kg that are designed to use leaded gasoline.
