The important thing to mention is to not exceed 30% Toluene to fuel. Toluene is actually difficult to combust (think diesel fuel) by itself. Do not try to exceed 30%

Thanks, John. That is the most helpful (and lengthy) response I could have hoped for!

Xylene is another commonly found alternative that can be purchased just about every hardware store in the paint department. Xylene has an Octane rating ( (R=M)/2 ) of 117 over Toluene's 114. I used to use Xylene and Toluene all the time along with 1/2 oz of Marvel Mystery Oil (MMO) for each Gallon of Xylene used in the mix. This was in a turbo rotary motor and had to use MMO anyway since the oil metering pump was disabled. Even when not using Xylene or Toluene mix I still had to "pre-mix" my gas by using Marvel Mystery Oil. When I used the Xylene mix, I would just up the ratio.
