Hi guys,

This is a quick update. It’s turned out that the lacquer thinner in my fuel tank damaged my fuel injectors.I have changed the fuel injectors and the misfires go away.

I check the data sheet here, acetone is made up 50% in this one.

I found this one (http://peswiki.com/index.php/Directory:Acetone_as_a_Fuel_Additive). It basically mentions some people experienced damaged fuel injectors (and fuel pump) too.

Hope it’d help someone

Indeed, he is. I have messed up with the fuel system because of putting laccquer thinner into the system.

I am an amateur on Auto Repair. My car is 1999 Honda Accord 3.0 V6.

I have watched Eric video and read the comments. They argued that he did not put enough lacquer thinner (should be half tank and 1 gallon.) I did the same. I bought 1 gallon of lacquer thinner at Home Depot and suck it all into the fuel tank.

At first, I ran okay. However, my car started to have rough idle, loss of power, engline light blinking, engine code P0301->P0306 + P0300 and P01999. I tried to dilute those shit out of my car by trying to let the car run until nearly empty tank. Badly, the problem still persists.

I will try to do the fuel pressure test tomorrow. I believe I have might to replace either fuel pump (included the fuel filter) or some fuel injectors.

I will update the post later. Wish me luck. Hopefully someone can give me some advice.
