Acetone doesn't work. However, keeping your injectors and engine clean does (which is normally why you see a benefit from running acetone). Friction modifiers do work, it also goes by another name, synthetic oil. Anything else that isn't certified by labs that do oil work continuously isn't worth putting in an engine IMO. As explained above insulation around your O2 sensor doesn't work either.
