Stephan,
The car uses petrol / gasoline. It is
not the model that uses LPG or other flex fuels.

Hello Randall,
A
quick question if I may. I'd just like to confirm that the by gas you talk
about petrol. Here in S.A. gas is gas(LPG). Are you useing gas(LPG) or
petrol?
Stephan
South Africa.
Please allow me to butt in here.
I used 2 1/2 oz Acetone per 10 gal of gas in both my cars for two tank
fulls. What I found, as I see it, was that the system got clean and my
mileage improved. After I went back to just gas, same station, same pump,
the improvement was still there.
My conclusion: Acetone is a very inexpensive fuel system cleaner.
It will only improve mileage if it can
clean the fuel system.
So, there you have my two cents.

tried several tanks in a 1997 Ford Crown Victoria P71 (retired police

scientific (strict controls on amounts, driving conditions, etc) and I
found almost no difference in my fuel economy.
