Comment on Back in the 1970s when we switched to unleaded gas, what did the vehicles that ran on leaded gas do?

My first car was almost a completely trashed 1970 Buick Skylark, this was in 2002.
It ran on leaded gasoline, so the plan was that id need to fill the unleaded gas into a gas-can, then mix in the lead additive, shake, and then fill its gas tank.
Ended up getting an 89 Caddy Deville that the seller was asking half as much for.

Is that the instructions for adding lead? You can’t dump it in first and then the flow from filling up the tank be enough to mix it? Or put it in halfway?

Idk dude.
I had a leaded gas hoped whose motor was from a weed Wacker.
My step-dad brought home the gas can of unleaded, then I squirted some of the lead additive in the can, and I'd kinda swish the can around before refueling the gas can.
Worked for the 2 months before the goped was stolen.
Didn't end up buying the skylark, so never had my dinosaur juice leadifying skills refined.
