you got it backwards--its 10 gallons of acetone to 1 once of diesel. just wait until you see what that does to your milage. and when youre done with that perform a blood-letting on yourself. jigger wrote i just read that 1 once of acetone in 10 gallons of diesel will increase milage and horsepower... any comments .
