Has anyone run Acetone in there truck? If so good bad, or what. I heard that it gives you up to 7 more MPG. Is this true? Thanks

 

uh i dunno, I wouldn't, great for getting scuffs off my gelcoat on my boat tho.

 

I use it to clean before I weld somthing, lol. I dunno about puting it in my engine though.

 

Supposed to give a nice bump in milage, but Id be real worried about the damage it could do to your pump seals....

 

That is what I was thinking, but there are some websites, that say it won't hurt your engine at all?

 

I cant say for sure...

 

Has anyone here ran it? Would like to know?

 

Them boys that have done it are all busy replacing their IP's.......

Just kidding, but let me ask you, if you really thought it was beneficial, wouldn't it already be in the fuel? I've read all different kinds of malarkey about this trick and that, and so far, none seem to bear out the test of time.

 

Cool thanks for all your help

 

Tried it under pretty well controlled conditions and it didn't do anything.

 

heres something for you ,but i wouldnt try it in my truck

It helps with the atomization of fuel, your lawnmower will benefit but 20000 psi diesel atomizes just fine

 

i tried it too. measured my tank within a quart of fuel for 4 tanks. no noticeable difference

 

The guys on Mythbusters tried it and it did nothin to boost mileage in their tests. It was a busted myth according to them.

 

Thanks for all your help, sounds like it is not worth trying it then.
