It did say in the article and other things I've read that optimal is using 3 
oz per 10 gal.  Several sites that I looked at said it would actually lower 
fuel economy if the concentration is more acetone in the mixture.  This is 
kind of interested but I'm not about to be the guinea pig for this! ;-) 
Ahh, what the hell.....I guess I could try it in the 5ktq but damn sure not 
in the S6.
