The acetone test

Well enough of this a-b-a and scangauge speculation as to whether or not Acetone works in improving MPG's. I decided to tackle this problem the old fashion way. I filled my wife's 4-runner up today and secretly added Acetone to the mix. I won't tell her and as you can see by the fuel log, the 4-runner is consistent to within a mile in either direction. A spike in mileage in either direction should put my curiosity to rest, and hopefully yours too ...

My mix is currently 1mL per gallon.
