Well, there *is* an "a" in "leaded".  So what if you try to make
old-fashioned gasoline, but make a mistake?  You would then have
created "misleaded" gas.
(deliberately removing the lead from gas produces unleaded
gasoline, but that's not the same thing as making a mistake while
creating it)

Oh wait... but this means that I was wrong to tell John that there
was no "misleaded" in English.  Curses, foiled again!
