No but I do know Acetone swells rubber and is highly evaporative consequently it may not help at all. Use Stabil it works a treat,-Keoke

Don't ever use acetone or methyl ethyl ketone in a fuel tank that has been coated inside with the fuel tank sealer like the kit that Moss sells. It will dissolve the coating and it will all wind up in your fuel lines and carbs !
