[QUOTE="S.B.C., post: 6526878, member: 604629"] Found this Acetone is known to deteriorate cheap plastics and other substances. While the components in a car's fuel system should be of high quality, and thus immune to any deleterious effects from exposure to acetone, be aware that "ideal" is not always the case in practice. Be advised that not all systems have been tested against acetone. Until such thorough testing has been accomplished and certified by an accredited authority, you assume your own liability for experimentally testing acetone in your particular system. [I]Vietnam officially bans acetone as additive in gasoline - Acetone is a solvent that can be used as an additive for boosting octane levels in gasoline. However, a high amount of acetone in gasoline can affect the rubber seals of vehicle engines, and is being blamed for the large-scale breakdown of motorcycles in Ho Chi Minh.
