If you believe that fuel enhancers and other elixirs can improve an
already highly complex product like gasoline, then please feel free
send your money on.  There are several companies more than willing to
help you.

To be honest I am instantly suspicious when a very small company comes
up with a fix that the large oil companies with rooms of highly
educated engineers and chemists have missed all these years.  Anything
is possible I suppose, but I'm not convinced.

Oh, yes, your first question was about adding kerosene to gasoline.
Haven't heard of that one, but I doubt you will see much change in a
full tank.  Added to a gallon it probably will make for some unusual
performance.

No, it wont work. Don't do it. It may mess with your emissions system
and actually do harm.

The fact that you are asking explains why they keep coming up with new
miracle products. There's always another doofus out there that is
willing to believe. It's the triumph of hope over reality as someone
once said about second marriages.

Nope... BS.

I haven't a clue, but have repeatedly heard that a small amount of
Diesel fuel will help prevent vapor lock.  Never had to try it, but I've
heard it enough that there might be something to it.

IT'S A SCAM!!!!!!!

EVERYBODY knows that the best combination is the cow stomach magnet on the
fuel line, coupled with the "Tornado" and the air breather in the PCV
line..

In the book, "The Racing & High Performance Tire" by Paul Haney - available
through the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) - Haney writes about the
differences in the way balls made of different rubber compounds
bounce......some higher than others.

He states, "Since the energy loss mechanism in rubber is mainly due to
viscous effects, these materials are said to be viscoelastic."

I REALLY don't believe that adding kerosene makes the fuel more - or less -
"bouncy."....Do you???

I guess anybody can toss around a few buzz words or terms such as
"viscoelastic", "fractional distillation", etc. and pull the wool over some
people's eyes......

Perhaps what the scam.... I mean, the entrepreneur purveying this
abomination really meant to say is, ".....the kerosene causes 'existential
frambulation' of the flutter component of gasoline molecules - thus
breaking up 'hydro-carbon clusters', and allowing the fuel to completely
perastize the gomperling elements "......

.......or something to that effect........

It is all the same thing..........Bull Schidt !!!!!!!!

As ol' P.T said, "There's one born every minute....."

Isn't Kerosene more expensive than gasoline?  Better be *real*
noticable improvements in fuel economy.

BTW, I'm not being the guinea pig.  Someone else can try it and let me
know.

Considering that the kero will burn like oil in the system and burning
oil is REALLY bad for the converter why would you want to poison the
system?  Like replacing those parts?

Basically it is BS, Just like adding Acetone, Moth Balls, Diesel and a
few others.

This is still based on the myth that mixture is not homogenous on
current engines, which is not true.  The inefficiency of current engines
is a THERMAL thing, not a mixture thing.

<snipped>

Fractional Distillation is the process used to refine crude oil in order to
extract the petrol in the first place! There is no *Fractional Distillation*
going on in your engine that could be *reduced*!
That statement alone should hint at the reliability of this advice.
