Adding acetone?

I've read the posts on here about adding acetone; it seems that there is no one that really agrees if it works or doesn't and for every person that says they've tried it and it works there's no that says it doesn't. I haven't been able to find anything on the internet from a reputable site that says either way. I guess I’d like to know if there is anyone that has data to show that it does work or doesn’t work. Also, is it possible that adding a small amount of acetone for a couple of tanks could have the benefit for cleaning the injectors to some degree? At least to make it worth doing every 6 months or so. I’m just looking for a reason to either start adding acetone to try it, it add it a couple times to clean the injectors, or to forget about it all together.
