My experience with acetone has been a 1 to 3 mpg increase over several tanks of fuel. I did my best not to alter my driving habits between tanks with and without acetone. Sorry no scientific testing... Anyway, by installing a transmission with higher gearing (numerically lower) in my car when I needed a new tranny, I now get 45 miles per gallon from my del Sol.

For my 01 Accord I have a ScanGauge that tells me mpg in real-time and also has a trip computer built into it. I can use the mpg meter to keep my foot out of it at the right times to save fuel/raise economy. Every little thing helps.
