Acetone in Gas Tank

[brad_i2001]

Hey Everybody!

Has anybody tried to put Acetone in their gas tank? 3 ounces in a 10 Gal. tank is supposed to double your gas mileage. If anybody has tried it, please let me know the results.

Thanks!

It doesnt do much if anything, and it will not double your mileage. If you want something useful, try 2 cycle engine oil, 1 oz to 5 gallons. The 2 cycle engine oil must be TC-W3 rated. It has many more benefits than acetone.

thats sound kinda retarded..Im nothing near expert in car but how would adding acetone in you tank reduce to amount of gas your going to be using by nearly half???\
Id suggest you try it in your car and post the results

Isn't Acetone one of the primary ingredients in Octane Booster? This was just a YouTube video that came up, and it sounded interesting. I was just wondering if anybody had tried it.

Thanks for posting!

Acetone will not reduce your fuel consumption.

Toluene is octane booster. 2-stroke oil wont do anything, except increase smoke and possibly kill the cat.

Not at a 500:1 ratio, which is roughly 1 oz to 5 gallon.
