Explanation:
lub benzyna etylizowana

Wygląda na to, że to to samo co "leaded petrol".

Etylina, benzyna silnikowa etylizowana (zawierająca środek przeciwstukowy - tetraetyloołów), o podwyższonej liczbie oktanowej (LO).

Leaded gasoline was withdrawn entirely from the European Union market on the 1 January 2000, although it had been banned much earlier in most member states. It was only recently phased out in China (around 2001)[citation needed]. In the United Kingdom a small amount of leaded gasoline ("four star petrol") is still permitted to be manufactured and sold[12], albeit with a higher rate of fuel duty.
