Default leaded fuels & o2 sensors

I was wondering if leaded fuels burn o2's out or just shorten there life

Leaded fuel will ruin your O2 sensors in no time at all. I think it's the lead itself which coats the O2 sensor and renders it pretty much useless thereafter...

Leaded fuel will also clog your fuel filter, fuel injectors, and cats (if you have them).
