Acetone, Xylene, and Toluene? 200

For my two cents worth, those items are for thinning or cleaning resins and heavier distillates. They are solvents by design.

They are not not for burning for an explosive reaction. They are a more pure distillate therefore, more expensive than gasoline.

There would not be any advantage to be gained using them, let alone procuring amounts the engine would use.

Those products could have a detrimental effect on fuel system materials that are made from other petroleum family chain molecules.

I know where you are on this. If water is made of hydrogen and oxygen molecules, why doesn't it burn?

If it would, then heaven and hell is all around us, right here on earth!

Scary balance of nature there, or a Sci-Fi book, to spin up global warming.
