ive heard lots about better mpg with acetone (1-3 oz/10 gallons of gas ratio)
is there any increase in mpg with Toluene or Xylene?
what do the 2 chemicals do to increase performance?
acetone is also suppose to greatly reduce surface tension. that would help to get a more full burn by having a more fine spray if gas into the manifold.
And its suppose to increase octane by around 5 points.

Ill do some reasearch on Toluene and Xylene.
