The site lists up to 5% parrafin as additives, but if you read through it it is 95-99% kerosene. Thanks for coming out. Material Safety Data Sheet on a off the shelf octane booster, wow imagine that! Maybe the nay Sayers should google stuff before speaking up and shooting everything down, eh? Since you lack the skills to google then anything you say should be moved into the unicorn corral since you obviously don't research anything.
G'day.
And of course to all vehicles will benefit form octane boosters, if a engine was designed for 87 octane it will not run well on 94 octane racing gas, but oa car requiring high octane fuel if you fill up 87 and add the specified amount of octane booster to the tank then you will have the right octane rating.
And where did you get that diesel has a octane rating of 20? That is so far out there are no words to describe it

Read, learn and drop the attitude. Its not helping your lack of credibility.

Quote:
In the mid-20th century, kerosene or tractor vaporising oil (TVO) was used as a cheap fuel for tractors. The engine would start on gasoline, then switch over to kerosene once the engine warmed up. A heat valve on the manifold would route the exhaust gases around the intake pipe, heating the kerosene to the point where it was vaporized and could be ignited by an electric spark.
In Europe following the Second World War, automobiles were modified similarly to turn to run on kerosene from the gasoline which would have to be imported and was heavily taxed. Besides additional piping and the switch between fuels, the head gasket was replaced by a much thicker one to diminish the compression ratio (making the engine less powerful and less efficient, but able to run on kerosene). The necessary equipment was sold under the trademark "Econom".[20]

Saab-Valmet developed in late 70's also a dual-fuel version which was able to use kerosene or turpentine alongside with gasoline. Low compression ratio for 67 octane kerosene was achieved by using turbo engine pistons.

If you want to destroy your engine thats fine, go right ahead but please stop giving out bad advice just because you misinterpreted something you read on an MSDS.
