if my calculations are correct, that's just under a 15% increase. IMHO that's is acceptable, meaning not sensational.

my testing confirms that acetone works in certain applications. i'm still trying to figure out in what applications it does and doesn't work. my results were negative for my wife's car with acetone, but not as maticulous testing.

soooooo many variables...

city driving vs hwy, heavy throttle vs light, domestic vs import, different compression ratios, different climates, etc.

i'm now in the midst of testing w/ my new vehicle. stay tuned...
