you should try mixing acetone with bromine first and see what happens!!!!! if you don't start tearing, then go ahead and put it in your car

 

I don't care, my car is a lease, I'll do it. But then again, I might end up buying it and keeping it til the new Gen G comes out.

Acetone in the gas tank ay??? Sounds crazy enough to work! I'll give you that!!

 

How about baby batter? A squirt has approximately 10 million individual agitators that will help the gasoline evaporate faster when injected and thus provide a better overall combustion.

Adding it only takes 1min 12sec of work.

 

someone try this and tell results

and how is it possible to get 24 MPG, thats insane. must be 99.9% highway driving with cruise on 99.9% of the time.

 

WTF is a baby batter?

 

google "bukkake"

 

Not to quibble, but 1 oz. per 10 gallons (or 1280 ounces) is .07812%.

As for mileage, I get 27-28 mpg if it's all highway (and that's cruising at 78-80 because the speed limit here is 75). I get 23-24 if I have to drive in the city.

 

Adding acetone to gasoline can increase its octane resulting in improved power and gas mileage. I know…I’ve done it. But 1 ounce per gallon of gas won't do anything. The mix needs to be somewhere between about 8 to 25% acetone. More than 25 or 30% isn't effective and may give diminishing returns. I’ve soaked every type of fuel and carburetor part I could find in the stuff at 100% without any noticeable deterioration, as was not the case with alcohol. The maximum octane increase is only about 3 or 4 but judging from the resulting increase in wheel spin (street racer dyno) it does work. These days, if I wanted a small boost in performance, I would just by a can or 2 of octane booster. They don’t use acetone to boost octane and it takes a lot less in the mix to get the same effect.

 

Do those octane booster in a can really work?

 

So, at $77 / gallon of Acetone (Lab Grade) it would cost $6 dollars for 8 % Acetone to Gasoline Mixture, and $19 for 25 % Actetone to Gasoline Mixture Per Gallon. Does anyone see the problem here? Even doubling the miles per gallon to, oh say 60 miles per gallon, would only yield $3 dollars (assuming $3 / gallon of gasoline) savings or benefit. My math may be a bit fuzzy (it's late and I'm tired), but I can't see any benefit here. If you put in 1 oz. well, that would be a whole different story. I won't do the math but I can't see much benefit here.

 

Hello, my name is fire. I don't think you've died in me yet.

 

HAHAHAAHAHa

 

Since I deal with chemicals on a daily basis, let me give you the MSDS on acetate, otherwise classified as Ester. Acetate's has a flash point as 58.0F whereas Gasoline has a flash point of -40F. So before you can mix the two together, your acetate would've been long gone in the air. On top of that, Gasonline is a mixture of hydrocarbons, Toulene, Xylene, 1,2,4 Trimethylbenzene, Benzene, and Ethyl Benzene. While all components including acetate are stable in it own state, having a chemical as such a high flash point could create an explosion at the wrong temperature.

In other words, you're better off pissing in your tank

 

Although I do agree that this has some potential benefits, but what are you talking about? Acetate is not Acetone. In general, Acetate is part of a group of Esters (Salts), not a chemical on its on per se. Acetone is a ketone (hence, the -one designation). The main part here is the Acetyl gropu (H, C, and O). So, an Acetyl group that has an oxygen that is double bonded in the middle of the chain (don't ask, it will get more complicated). Blah, I don't want to get into to too much Chemistry here, so I'll leave you guys with this last point:

Acetate is NOT Acetone.

 

Ok, so who's gonna be the guinea pig???
