Acetone test results

Last summer i tried acetone for two months in my 1988 Pontiac 6000 with a 2.5L . In summer driving, gas only, I averaged 28 MPG. I added approx. 36mL per 10 US GAL gas. With acetone I continued at about 28. But 1125 miles later I HAD to replace fuel injector, which also fried a transistor in the ECM, and ruined the fuel pump. The 2 cents in gas were offset a bit in repair costs.
YMMV
As a side note, about a month ago I drove this car to the scrap yard.
