RESULTS>>
Ok so I filled the Stang back up today for the official results. I had used the 3oz per 10gal mixture and I put the acetone in before filling up for a good mix. I even used the same pump I filled up with the first time for the refill. Iended up getting21.55 mpg which is the EXACT same number I got the last time I calculated my milage without the acetone.

RE: Are these safe?
Almost forgot found a pic of what I bought http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...F8&seller=
Also are all the warnings on the box some thing I should take seriously? It says that even the vapors can cause flash fires, not to breath in and not to get on skin goes on and on, I thought it was compareable to gasoline and gasoline doesn't have all these warnings and stuff. I guess it would be a good idea to buy a new messuring unit instead of using my moms kitchen measuring cup....
Another thing does it really matter if you put it in first or after fill up? I was thinking first but I thought about it and if I put it in after it would basicly be the same I would guess the acetone is heavier too.
