Here's what Wayne Gerdes had to say on cleanmpg.com -" ___As for Acetone, Bluefuzz, has it right. If Acetone worked (it doesn’t), the manufacturers would have a $15.00 plastic tank filled with the crap and a $30 metering injection pump to feed it into the fuel system vs. the multiple tens of $BILLIONS of dollars the manufacturers spend on new engine technology to achieve even a small increase in FE".
