[NSRCA-discussion] Acetone in methanol?

[Koenig, Tom]

Gentlemen,
You may be aware most of us down here mix our own fuel. We have available pure Methanol or a methanol product 'Shell A' which has 3% Acetone in it.
I have added 2-3% acetone into my fuel mix ( I buy pure Methanol) and I'm not sure if I could detect a difference, if any at all. It may have idled a bit better-but it could have been my imagination??

So my question is-what exactly can/does Acetone do in our fuel mixes?? Does it do anything at all??

Thanks for any insight.

Tom
