I am going to try it as soon as the Acetone is delivered. Will post up results for anyone who is interested.

First Test = 1.5ml to liter (2 ounces per 10 Gals)

Second Test = 2.5ml to Liter (3 Ounces per 10 Gals)

OK RESULTS:

After testing with 3 full tanks(1,2,3 Oz per 10 gals):

1) Fuel Ecomony = same

2) Power = Terrible lag

Changes:

After reseting the ECU and advancing the timing the silly lag is still there. Very annoying. Waiting for the third tank to clear then can resume using normal gas.

Fuel:

Dont have any 92 0r 96 or any of that stuff. We just have Unleaded Super.

Acetone:

100% pure from paint manufacturers.

Damage:

No damage to any parts. Acetone was supplied in plastic container, Used the small cups you get with medicine for measurement they didnt melt as well. Any part made to be resistant to fuel can handle this stuff.It's used as nail polish remover.

Ill go with Mythbusters - Acetone as fuel additive = Totally Busted!!

i ve never heard of anyone using acetone as a fuel additive. we use it for cleaning sails of salt water and grease and it lifts everything. i would hate to put a spark anywhere near it!! lol. i would say it would burn very well but in relation to a petrol mix PASS
