good reading about acetone
This article says to use only a couple ounces of 100% pure acetone per tankful for increased mileage. The acetone doesn't do any damage to seals per his research. The seals swell a small amount but stabilize.

I think I'll try it this weekend on my trip to Statesboro and see if I can see any instant gains. If not, I already know what my truck averages, so let the testing begin!
18-22 mpg difference on a neon. im willing to try,im just afraid of getting any on the paint
old mod list: H/C/I/N/E/G 408
new mod list: 5.3, gears/posi, mufler and tune : (
Yeah, I was kind of worried about that too. I guess I can use a funnel with a hose or something on it to keep it away from the paint.
Or measure it in one of those Day Quil thingy's
Even if all it does is clean your injectors, your ahead of the game.
Just don't let the girl put it in since it's finger nail polish remover she might get pissed if it melts her paint.

OH yeah.. I told my girl about it and she said she wanted to try it if it worked for me.....she's pretty kick ass though, maybe she can ring the hole lol
I bet her Accord will kick some ass (mpg wise) if it works right.
i buy mine at walmart and still use it when i think about it...it does increase mpg...i use 2 to 3 oz per every 10 galons of gas...

A bud of mine tried it in his F150 and noticed no appreciable gains. This is over the course of two weeks.
