Getting 35% better mileage from a fuel that costs $6/gallon (200% more) isn't exactly a win.

The figure didn't print last time. 3 oz/10 gal makes it a considerably better deal economically.

Getting 35% better mileage from a fuel that costs $6/gallon (200% more) isn't exactly a win.It is when you consider the tiny amounts of that fuel that you mix in with the gasoline, 2-3 ounces per 10 gallons. That 1 gallon of acetone would treat some 420-640 gallons. Lets say its 420. at $2.00 per gallon, thats $840 bucks. So for $846, you get %20+ better mileage. _IF_ this works as advertised (which I still doubt his mileage figures), it would be a big benefit.

Except you add 3 oz. of the $6/gal acetone to a 10 gallon tank.
