Chemically Improving Your Gas Mileage In Your Car

What if there was a way you could actually improve your gas mileage by an impressive 5-20% without having to change your driving habits or installing anything additional to your car?

You may not know it but there is a way for you to improve your mileage without any major change to your car. For many years Big Oil has offered three or so grades of gas octane: 87 regular, 89-90 premium and 91-94 super which are based upon a 100 octane scale where the most ideal fuel was propane. The scale however did not consider aromatic petrol compounds and derivatives which can actually surpass the 100 octane mark to as high as 115-130 octane.

Although the following sounds like a hand full or requirements the object is to therefore get the engine running on the cleanest burning fuel possible which leaves less soot and deposits in the combustion chamber and valves, clean the injection system or the carburettor (in older cars), not harm the emissions system, not void any warranty and of course get gas mileage and increased engine life span.

It has been recently proved that aromatic petroleum distillates, methyl alcohol, ether, acetone and toluene will do the trick. You must however be aware that if you make the fuel mixture too strong then you could actually do the opposite and cause more damage. The easiest mixture to handle was 1-2 ounces of acetone per full tank. This mixture was tested on a number of fuel tanks from 4-8 cylinder gas engines to big Cummings diesel engines and the range in increase of fuel efficiency was 5-20% and the average was approximately 9%. It was also discovered that if you used 3 or more ounces of acetone per full tank then the results were the same or worse than that without acetone.

The effects of the acetone were later tested on the fuel line components themselves and it was found that unlike methyl alcohol it did not have a caustic effect. Acetone will have an etching effect on paint, plastic headlights lenses etc. and spills should be wiped off immediately.

So to increase your fuel efficiency by approximately 9% in your vehicle at a fraction of the cost you can just add 1-2 ounces of acetone per tank. The only concern is that Big Oil does not want you to know how to save on gas and you may still void your warranty as they now test for gas additives like acetone.

Also, acetone or any additive that makes your engine more efficient and burn cleaner is better for the environment – less emissions.

For the not so wealthy, rising fuel prices will certainly affect you every time you go to the gas station. It is anticipated that the cost of fuel will double because new oil reserves have not yet been discovered and those that are currently being used are running low.
It is therefore becoming important to many people to implement the use of money saving devices that will also help fuel economy at the same time.
We have listed two devises below for your consideration,
Conversion to water kits
These can be used on your care and can even double your overall mileage with a better working engine and importantly will also reduce the pollution levels which may otherwise be created. The conversion kits can be built in your garage as this is safe and cheap to do.
Pills
Specially manufactured pills can be introduced with the gas to improve your mileage by approximately 5-15%. This will also improve the way your engine works.
