Chemical Compounds in Gasoline
The purpose, as I understand it, of Ecomodder is to increase fuel efficiency in our vehicles. Any of the compounds that we were discussing, other than the stated ones in your gasoline, in the ppm or ppb range are not going to significantly affect the miles per gallon of your vehicle.
In our area, we are not allowed to have even 1 ppm of MTBE, mostly due to the contamination of ground water than can occur. For awhile we were producing and even selling MTBE. That portion of our plant was shut down and dismantled when the studies of the harmful effects of MTBE came out.
I seem to have offended you and I am sorry if you feel offended. My purpose was to inform and possibly warn you and others about the components in gasoline that are dangerous.
The Acetone that you were adding and the Propane, Butanes and Pentanes in the gasoline are components that can flash at room temperatures and will float in the air, when given the chance.
