Acitone eats plastic and rubber... I'll try and find a thread on the truck forum that talks about this a bit.

prolonged exposure to acetone would cause degradation, but as a short term fuel booster you could get away with it, the concentrations they talk about are hardly enough to cause damage for the first time, or even the first ten times, but if you did this say for 50K miles, you'd probably start to see erosion of any plastic materials in the car.

one thing i see everyone is forgetting is the constant exposure the fuel pump assy would see. alot of those parts are plastic and rubber.
yeah, it probably wouldn't hurt short term...
Just remember, plastics are fossil fuel based (natural gas, oil, etc.)

by the way, i read an article i'll have to find on toulene being an octane booster....
