Re: anyone read this?? true? untrue?
 
I would say true, for low quality gasoline. If you use premium, I
would an equivalent is already there. Acetone at five bucks a quart, or
thirty two ounces:
http://www.toolsusa.com/PaintSupplie...at=PaintSupply
And using two per ten gallons is an additional buck a fill up.
Of course, methanol makes up ten percent of Arco gasoline, I wouldn't
touch it, because it'll cook my carburetor seals and valves.

I can buy acetone at retail US paint stores for about $5 a gallon. That
puts the wholesale cost at $2.50-$3 a gallon for the store. I wonder
what 50,000 gallons in bulk would cost?

I would be very skeptical. Remember Acetone is a solvent
and many rubber/poly parts in the fuel system are only
designed to resist gasoline and known additives. Some additives
can dissolve the seals. This is especially true for carbureted
vehicles. A few bucks saved on a fillup might cost you a thousand
in repairs.

Acetone will decrease the octane rating and can lead to detonation
in high compression engines. It's also more volatile than gasoline
and will evaporate, get sucked into the canister system and be burned
off.

That and any of it gets on your plastic body parts or paint and
it's buh buy paint. Acetone is also known as paint solvent and is
great for removing road tar from chrome bumpers and knocking down
oils before painting bare metal.

Re: anyone read this?? true? untrue?
 
I have used this chemical Acetone Lab grade in air sample analysis, using a
microscope. Sample prep using this chemical, it burns quite slow and very
clean. You can put it on a flat surface light it on fire and after burning
out no residue is left, so it might be true.

I guess you have to have sold gasoline or driven a commercial truck
to understand road taxes.
Maybe you'll understand what make up the price of the home you live
in, some say location, location, location, which is another way of
supply and demand.

What does that, or the price of my home, have to do with experimenters
adding acetone to gasoline?
