acetone increase MPG
 

does anyone know about or use this before? adding small amounts of 100% pure acetone to ur tank when fueling up increase gas mileage. It helps vaporize fuel more efficiently in ur cambers. Generally it's nail polish remover which is rated at 150 octane, many companies package it as octane booster or fuel injector cleaner. However acetone from your drugstore is alot cheaper than octane booster and gas. Some tests shown no real damage to fuel system parts including gaskets/orings etc. however it is a solvent nonetheless. Some claim adding 10 MPG to their fuel consumption. Anyone been doing this with results?

Most independent tests have indicated that adding acetone actually decreases your fuel mileage.

i dont trust it enough to potentially damage my car

In for legit answers.

Everything you read on the internet is true.

if you don't care about ethanol either, then give it a go :thumbsup:

wtf.... next thing you know, people start putting cooking oil into the engine......

um.... they do

they do lol

Acetone is HIGHLY corrosive against plastics.
You are going to burn through your hoses and gaskets in no time if you do this.

Just try it with some old action figures or something.
The paint will come right off and the plastic will lose it lusture from being eaten away.

Soak that action figure in a jar with acetone overnight.
Depending on the plastic, it could crumble, get brittle, get goopy or just plain dissolve.

So how long does your fuel sit in your tank and in your hoses? ;)

i doubt it will do anything

Adding a whole bunch of dents to your car will improve gas mileage!

will speed holes improve gas mileage? or do i have to make "mileage holes"?

It will also make your car faster. On Daily planet there was someone who made a vinyl material that had golf ball type dimples on it.


All I could find on it
"No myth. I saw this earlier this year on a Daily Planet episode. Some Porsche 911GT race car was wrapped in a dimpled adhesive vinyl. Ran 2 or 3 seconds faster per lap on some race track. That's a very serious edge in racing."

I heart $133.9/L 94 ocatane gas with 17mpg city driving

I heard peeing into your tank helps as well.

I don't.

I heart 133.9¢/L 94 Octane :)

My cambers would like to vaporize fuel more efficiently too, so would my toes.

Hey, I was paying $1.50+/L for 94 octane a couple summers ago... so don't complain. ;)

i see what you did there

fuk mine gets 15mpg driving like a granny completely factory bone stock lol. I dont even want to knw what my datsun does. full tank only gets me 290kms haha

With the NOAA reporting that global temperatures in the last 6
months are at its highest since 98, any legit improvement or idea
would be a breath of fresh air.

Paulownia elongata planting day anyone?
