Best Answer

Yes but not all cars. Av gas has a high concentration of lead additives used to boost octane. This is because of the high compression in airplane engines. Lead, in any amount in your fuel, will ruin your catalytic converter. Av fuel is also a great deal more expensive than your automotive pump gas. So yes you can, if you don't have a catalytic converter, and DO have lots of money to burn.
