Any mileage increase?

posted by  someone claiming to be Gustafkalle on  Fri May 12 00:19 CST 2006 [RELATED]

Poolman, thanks for feedback. Got interested in this because my mileage in my 945T+ has become worse. Seems from your experience in your reply the basic idea of improved combustion by acetone is perhaps a hoax.

This last winter my mileage has been increasingly worse, now when it is early summer (Swedish) with 15-20 C, and after a tank of E85 ethanol, now back to regular gas, the milage is much better. So, I might have had soom problem with injectors which are now better after rinsed by the ethanol.

Anyway, I wonder whether there could bes some problem with my cold start system. Anyone has any experience with this? Can it be clogged up, and helped by cleaning?
