Well in the interest of research I just added 3.4 oz of 91% isopropyl alcohol and 0.7 oz of Marvel Mystery Oil to a 17.8 gallon tank of gas unleaded.
Since I am super anal about stats of my last 7 or 8 tankfuls, if there is even a 5% improvement I will know and report it here. I drive back and forth to work the same way everyday with little change. Just a small request from some of you veterans of this website, as you will read in the message above, no abbreviations, no shorthand, etc. MMoil means nothing to folks you are new here, take the extra 5 seconds required to be clear and everyone will appreciate it. Thanks in advance! P.S. ATF=Automatic Transmission Fluid |

I'm testing 2.5 oz 91% iso and 2 oz MMoil per 10 G in a fuel injected engine. |

Sorry are you asking a question or making a statement? (question mark at the end of your sentence) If you are making a statement what is the statement based on? Frankly I don't expect any change in Fuel Economy (FE) or perceivable power but I had the Alcohol and Marvel Mystery Oil laying around so what the heck. At the end of this tankful I will know whether it made the slightest bit of difference. If it does I will bottle it and sell it!! :thumbup: :D |

Marvin needed one at about 240,000KM.... he's got 70,000 km on it now, and during that time has drank a bottle of isopropyl approx every 6 weeks for emissions and fuel system cleaning, has had periods of a couple of bottles a week when I've been testing the effect on mileage, only recently started screwing with putting lubes in the tank. I don't think any alcohols are going to seriously affect the lubricity designed into the fuel, until you start putting 20% or so of your own brew in there.

Yep, a hair under 150K miles. IMO key to pump longevity is changing fuel filters on schedule (if it's sensible like 18-24mo or 30K, if longer than that do it at least every 2 years.) or as required, when your pump starts to get louder it's probably new filter time.
