How-To Section: Make your own Octane Booster (at your own risk!)

 

This is the basic formula of one of the popular octane booster products.

To make eight 16 ounce bottles (128 oz = 1gal):

100 oz of toluene 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.
