This is the latest talk of the town and I would like to read more about it. It's adding 2 oz. of acetone to 20 gal. of gasoline every time you fuel up.

Not too long ago the govt. tested all these home remedies including the tornado fuel saver & found that 99 out of 100 were a complete failure. The other 1% were inconclusive or saved soo little they werent worth the time or money installing them. So as bad as it sounds either dont drive at all, or wait on the hydrogen, or keep buying gas from big oil.

Why don't you get some acetone and pour it over the outside of your engine and watch what happens. The same will happen to all your hoses and O rings and rubber parts.
Replacing the engine shouldn't cost much more than you save on gas ... NOT!

Apparently Professor Greg Davis at Kettering University and the Mythbusters have taken this on and both parties did not confirm this one. In fact, the Mythbusters found it actually reduced mileage.

Bad idea. It will probably void your warranty, and could destroy your engine.
