However once you get south of Tan Tan and also within Western Sahara there's no more unleaded, it's leaded only. On the plus side however the price of the fuel is about half that of the rest of Morocco.

Hey Tim.
I've heard this before. And having it come from you, makes it carry all the more weight. However, I am not convinced. Or shall we say "I don't know what to believe anymore"
. Based on the official information I have been able to gather from both government authorities and major oil companies represented in Africa, I have yet to find any written source who confirms that it is unleaded only south of Tan Tan. Or south of anywhere, as it happens.
It would be of great help to all of us here, if you could perhaps link some sources to the information you have. Or if the information is not online, tell us how you got it. That way, people can evaluate the different infos and make up their own minds what they choose to believe. 'Cause it seems that this issue will never be put to rest untill someone travels through Africa with a "lead-detector" and samples every fuelstation. If someone can come up with the money for such an endevour, I volounteer to join the trip
.
Best regards
Torsten
