Anybody seen this, or know anything a/b it?
I've google'd it, and it seems that most people are worried a/b it doing damage to plastic and rubber in the fuel system. The video says to just add 2oz to 10gal -doesn't seem like it could do much damage, but it also seems like if it could do this much good (doubling your mileage & clean up emissions) then the government would be giving this stuff away, eh?

Oh god. I'm going to kill myself if this stupid idea gets talked about on one more forum.

It does nothing. Period.

Actually...it does help, but only when mixed with other things, i forget what the mixture is(and frankly dont want to tell you guys) but you can put it in with other chemicals to boost MPG. I know of someone who bought a hydrogen supplement system for cars and this mix came with it, tell you what to mix in proportion and such..... :banana:

human urin is a great octane booster and also better for mpg's, its aslo free. heres what i do. take a water bottle or something into the bathroom, and pee in it. toss it in the trunk and on the next fill up, just mix it in with about 40liters of gas. You will notice the difference. also to make your pee even more poten take lots and lots of steroids, to fill your pee full of testosterone, it will give your engine lots of ponies.

I tried this with my horse, mixing it in with his oats to see if she could go longer on one belly full.

Read up on your chemistry before you do this, as well as what acetone will do to various components of your fuel system. Then decide if you want to try this. If you still do then don't let it be said that you were not warned.



A little bit of information is a dangerous thing without any knowledge of the consequences should one act on it.


....especially when it is misinformation.
