If you think that is the cats meow, you'd go nuts with a JC Whitney catalog. Beware of horsepower claims that are measured at the brochure.~~~~~~~scott

It's acetone - aka - nail polish remover. If you watch enough TV you'll see them do an expose on the stuff at one time or another, they're always doing some "consumer protection" crap story on the news about this stuff.

All the "MPG boosters" become real popular when gas prices go up. The 'Tornado', octane boosters etc etc etc etc etc etc etc *yawn* etc etc etc etc etc - all crap.

Default Imortal words!!

In the imortal words of my diesel Instructor
There's no such thing as a can of un F&@K!!!!!!
Believe it or not most of those additives are already added to the fuel by the oil companys!!! I truly think those things act kinda like a placebo!!

Obviously you haven't tried Redline's Fuel Injector Cleaner. It adds a tad more punch as it cleans....believe it.....or not. And no I'm not joking...I've used this stuff on many occasions and even my father has used it and noticed the addition of a bit more pickup when using this stuff. Now I'm not talking like a massive boost of power, just a feel of a little more oomph. I highly recommend the stuff!

I wouldn't add anything to the fuel. I already know of one dealer that replaced a fuel pump with a melted impeller due to a fuel additive being used.

The effect is mostly psychosomatic.
