Your engine says to use leaded gas in it because when it was made, leaded gas was what you got. The lead was there to protect the valves in a four-stroke engine. A two-stroke like yours has no valves, so it needs no lead. Ipso facto, so long as you keep putting a good grade of two-stroke oil in your gas, you can run all the unleaded in it you want.
