Double your gas milage

There is a thread here about acetone that is like a billion pages....
 
I went from 20-22 MPG to 40-44 MPG without adding anything to my gas!!

All I did was buy this....

I'm not sure about putting acetone in my gas. I'd be worried about any long term effects. Oh, I won't be leaving my jack and spare at home either... Even if you do have roadside assistance. I would rather change a tire then wait forever.

Wow, just wow... some people will believe anything. I'm sure you might see some gain by adding acetone, but not 10mpg from 2oz per 10gal of gasoline.
Also, I'll keep my jack and my spare tire thank you... :rolleyes:

Personally, I'm with you.

If I want good MPG...I'll ride the motorcycle.

But, FWIW, My sister-in-law just bought a new Miata. It did not even come with a spare. Just Fix-a-flat.

Distances out here are too far apart for me to even trust that idea.

I tried it for a while, using the information in that HUGE acetone thread that pops back up every now and then.

I noticed no real improvement in MPG. Engine seemed to run a tad bit smoother, but that could have been my imagination. I ran it through 4 tanks (so roughly a month) of 90% city driving.
