How to make your own octane booster (this is the basic formula of one of the popular octane booster products). To make eight 16 ounce bottles (128 oz = 1 gal):

100 oz of toulene for octane boost

25 oz of mineral spirits (cleaning agent)

3 oz of transmission fluid (lubricating agent) This product is advertised as "octane booster with cleaning agent *and* lubricating agent!". Diesel fuel or kerosene can be substituted for mineral spirits and light turbine oil can be substituted for transmission fluid. Color can be added with petroleum dyes.

What is toulene? And where does one get 100oz of it?

"What is toulene?"

 

its NORMALLY sold as a PAINT ADDITIVE AND CLEANER at larger paint supply stores in gallon cans or cases of gallon cans,

DONT GET IT IN CONTACT WITH SKIN OR BREATH VAPOR

Don't get it on the paint of your car either.

 

Make sure you add the "lubricant" to it as well. The 32 to 42 to 1 range is fine.
