Good fuel Mixture?
Below is a post from betterMPG group on Yahoo. Sounds like my idea to mix acetone and Coleman fuel wasn't too far off. I just may have only overdid it a bit.
According to LaPointe....
"We prefer to add one ounce of Torco GP-7 or Torco EAL into a 16 oz. bottle of
acetone. This improves MPG and the lubricity of the fuel and also improves the
anti-knock rating both to diesel fuel and gasoline. Shake the contents well just
before you add this nice mix to the fuel. The amount remains 2 oz. per ten
gallons in diesels and 2-4 oz. per ten gallons of gasoline.
In gasoline only, we often add Techron right after the acetone. Techron is sold
in most parts stores as a cleaner. We use 2-3 oz. of Techron per 10 gallons of
gas. It is made by Texaco/Chevron."
* As I figure it (not again!)...he uses GP7 at a 0.2 oz per 10 gallon ratio. *
Somebody tried Torco EAL and couldn't get it to dissolve.
I'd use the GP7 with acetone...using the acetone to carry it. Or mix into some
gas?
Since I didn't keep my mpg gains last year with 3 oz acetone...I'm going to go
with the following...
acetone at 1 to 2 oz per 10 gallons
Coleman's at 1 to 3 oz per 10 gallons
GP7 at 0.1 to 0.2 oz per 10 gallons
Using this along with the ozone air bleed thru the distributor.
Also bought a bottle of Techron to test.
Will also try wrapping the O2 sensor with alum foil.
And am making a spiral muffler...

So far...knock on Al Lumininium...I'm holding a a 25 mpg level...with occasional
outruns into the 28-31 mpg area.
