    Acetone might have an effect of gasket and seal breakdown.

        I could only see that as a possiblity if the gasket was somehow composed of plastic.

        If you've tried this then post results of your experiement.

                If youre looking for octane gains - look into Toluene. You can pick it up at your local ace hardware and its well over 100 octane.

                        I don't have detonation like Ritalin does so I don't need more octane...

                            Both of you are right - and that equation needs to change.

                            Again - this thread has been cleaned up significantly. If you have anything useful to add to this post - positive OR negative - about the use of acetone, feel free to post. Otherwise keep it to yourself.

                            Moderators shouldn't be babysitters. Stop bashing each other and just get along for god's sake. We are all at least older than 13, right? Act like it :)

                                The use of Acetone is more or less for better gas mileage rather than just an intake booster.

                                        It aligns the molocues in fuel, yeah sure it does...more snake oil from the makers of the Fodenator.

                                            What about performance. I remember watching top gear this summer and one of em made a car that ran on cow shit fumes or something. Only it performed noticably worse than the normal gas cars. Does acetone have an effect here?
