I would never do this on my car... Rental??? Hmmm just from 1 post I would not even do that. I would want this idea to be totally researched before I would do this. Anyone dumb enough to do this well please don't post after the fact, telling us how your car doesn't work and you "don't know why". Then ask everyone to figure out why.

Most will remember how one poor chap did a dynan, and some other small mods, and got stuck between dynan and the dealership. His car was not running properly yet notbody wanted to fix it. Well, in the end it turned out he had used some 3rd party boost gas stuff.. and it damaged his spark plugs. Nobody has thought of that, and it created a mess for a whole bunch of people. I can see something like this happening all over again.

My 1 even can tell the difference between Sunoco 94 and Shell V Power Premium. I would never add this. N E V E R!!!!

Plus anyone who is really into saving money at the pump is nuts to buy a 1.

Acetone is a powerful solvent, a potential warranty-wrecker, until more research, positive results prove safe, do not do this, plus, acetone is a sealant dehydrator, it leaches soft/rubbery-like seals of essential oils. Do not do this!:eyebulgeo not do this! Are you nuts?

Ditto - you might as well put anything in your tank - just to see.
You can then let us know at what point your car stopped working.

LOL doing things like this in Canada is like...

Buying a BMW 135i and then going to Canadian Tire to have them work on your car. LOL

Anyone who swears by CT, only uses words that we should not type here...

Putting acetone in your engine is the equivalent of you drinking formaldehyde. :eyebulge:
