Default ACETONE TO INCREASE GAS MILEAGE

Has anyone used acetone...1-3 oz. per 10 gal. of gas...to increase gas mileage? Are there any rubber parts in the fuel system that would get eaten by the acetone?

This has come up many times on many of the Rover forums and I would suggest you stay away from it.
What sort of mileage are you currently getting, how many miles on your truck and what have you done so far to improve your mileage.
