Seems I remember reading in the old threads that Coleman lantern fuel is a very good fuel system cleaner. I couldn't find any reference to this anywhere else on the internet, but I went ahead and tried it anyway.
To a full tank of 25 gallons, I added one quart of Coleman lantern fuel and drove the vehicle normally.
Results:
1. Doesn't seem to have hurt the vehicle.
2. Didn't change idle or engine sounds.
3. Maybe had slightly more acceleration while running that tank through.
4. Maybe retained the slight acceleration benifit on subsequent tanks of gas.
This is a well maintained Land Rover which is no speed demon to begin with, however, it seems to accelerate more smoothly now. Sort of like the feeling you get when you replace badly worn spark plugs.
Conclusion: I'm gonna use it again in a few months and see what happens.
Just thought I'd throw this out there.
