This is one of the things I don't understand. Why does it work sometimes and not others. Why does it do 1 mpg gain and a 3 mpg gain other times. This would seem to follow the static that you see from tank to tank testing. Look at gaslogs everyone of them will vary 6-10% if you are a very consitant driver more if not.
When people start testing acetone it's because they are trying to save gas in the first place that's why they are looking into. This with changing all kinds of things on the car and driver. I don't think any additive can be tested tank to tank.
