Tetraethyl lead.<\/p>\n<p>Tetraethyl lead (TEL) is a gasoline additive that was used to increase the octane rating of gasoline and reduce engine knocking. It is a toxic substance that is no longer used in gasoline due to environmental concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Octane rating is a measure of a fuel&#8217;s ability to resist knocking in an internal combustion engine. Knocking is a pre-ignition of the fuel-air mixture in the engine cylinder, which can cause engine damage.
