If anyone else would've suggested using acetone, I would probably think they were full of more shit than a Thanksgiving turkey.
Thanks for the great tip Art, I'm going to try it too!  |
Bob, there's a shit load of articles on Acetone as an additive, here's one of them, just do a search for "Acetone in Gas"!.. They say it increases gas mileage but I've done a test on two of my vehicles (a month each) and neither vehicle has gained in mileage, I've even played around with different timing settings and still no difference, and I know some other people that have tried it with the same results!. But it sure made a diference in how it idles, I couldn't believe it BBC's got to be the worst for idling after running a long distance and then come to an idle, but it was smoothe as can be. And when I took it in for the BS smog crap, I could not believe how clean it was, they even asked me how in the heck did I get a 73 dually to run so clean, I just told them "I just tune it", LOL.. The wife's Toyota P/U was cleaner than when we first bought it brand new in 86 and it's got 350,000 on it!.. The way I figure it what it does is cleans the whole fuel system along with the valves and combustion chambers!.. But you have to be careful when you buy the stuff you have to make sure that it says "100%" on the can for it to work properly!..
Acetone!
