i was talking to this guy that did drag racing in his younger years and he said that he use to cut a moth ball in half. fill up the tank with pump gas and put in a half ball per tank. he said it'd raise the octane from 90 whatever to well over 100.
anyone hear of that? -------------------- it's not a dsm unless it's leaking something

actually, I was watching a myth busters program a two months ago when I was in Michigan.
And... Although they couldn't prove that it 'raised' the octane level, they were able to prove that it didn't negatively affect the engine I still wouldn't recommend it, how the hell do you intend to get them out? there are better methods that aren't that cheap to increase your octane. -------------------- game over.
