I'm not sure what the owner's manual says, but I'll take your word for it.
I'm refering to the 'fuel type' specification in the factory service manual
(issue 3, 10/99), at the top of page 1.15 in the General Information
chapter.

BTW -- I still don't know what "CLC" stands for, but I discovered that "AKI"
stands for "anti-knock index".

I wouldn't use straight isopropyl for that very reason -- the commercial
stabilzers always have a chart or somthing similar that shows you how much
to mix in to get the required time interval (turns out that the strength of
dilution determines how long the gas remains stable)

don't get me wrong -- the additive that you suggest may be well-worth the
money and very good at what it does -- it's just that improving gas mileage
by boosting octane rating isn't something it does
