Well, I am back with exciting news. The fuel prices have started shooting up and it’s high time we have realized it. The day, when we have to shell out 70/- per liter for petrol is not far away. While googling on net, I came to know about a compound which can help you improve the mileage of your petrol vehicle. Hmmm I know by now you must be very anxious to know about it :).
There is another use of this magical compound and that is to help the combustion process in the engine. Usually the combustion process leaves behind some amount of fuel and thus it is wasted. Acetone helps this combustion process to burn the fuel completely to maximize its usage.
So, with an average of 45 kmpl, I cover up 180km with 4 liters of petrol. Now when I last filled, I put 2 ml of acetone per 1 liter of petrol. After I was done with this 4 liters of petrol, I realized, I have travelled 230km. This is a good 50km jump from my milestone of 180km. So effectively I gained almost 25-30% for the same amount of fuel. I am still experimenting with the right amount of acetone for mixing. There are few myths about why acetone should not be used and how it affects plastic parts n all. You should consider that we are mixing very small amount of acetone per liter. For 1000ml we are mixing just 2ml which is not enough to destroy any plastic part. So be assured that it will not have any negative impact on your vehicle. Once I am comfortable with it I will use it on my car as well.
PS: I have started using it based on my understanding. Before you start using Acetone, google it and make sure you are well aware of its pros n cons.
