Default Acetone for paint or fuel???

I've tried searching for any topic regarding this fluid for paint removal but came up with no topics.
I'm hearing that if added to fuel...improves fuel mixture for better combustion??? I'm very skeptical about that!!!
Has anyone hurd about that?

It's supposed to act like an octane booster...but I wouldn't trust it either.

Xylene is what you are looking for.

Proceed with caution as this chemical is a known carcinogen-
