Xyelene and A/F Gauge

pac663 · 12-04-2001, 02:55 AM

Where do I connect the sending wire of the A/F gauge on the wiring harness? Has anyone heard of Xyelene being added to pump gas to increase the octane rating? Thanks!

We use Xylene were I work all the time. It is an excellent degreaser and good for getting grease stains out of carpet.

DO NOT USE XYLENE IN YOUR GAS TANK!!!!!!!!! XYLENE DISOLVES PLASTIC IN A MATTER OF HOURS.

Pour some xylene in a plastic cup and then see if you want it flowing through your injectors.

Dont do it in my opinion, I tried to use Xylene to take the paint off of a model that I was putting together and it melted the body in minutes.

Thanks 5.0. I'll stick with mixing race 104 and 91.
