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?

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.
