The Bosch LSM11 sensor and the new 5 wire VW/Bosch sensors used in
the new Innovate wb meters are tolerent to lead to about 50 hrs of use
or so dependant on lead level. What can kill them early is poor mounting
so that moisturw/water from early engine operation can crack the ceramic
and ruin sensor. Good news is that the new VW/Bosch sensors are only
$56 list so if u ruin one to tune a motor, it is cheap to fix.
