OCTANE RATING ENHANCER COMPOSITION, METHOD OF USE, AND KIT CONTAINING IT

Abstract

An octane-enhancing composition is provided that includes methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT), a sterically unhindered antioxidant, with a fluid carrier that includes an aliphatic fluid present as the remnant of the composition. A method of octane enhancement is also provided that includes introducing the inventive octane-enhancing composition into a fuel supply, allowing sufficient time for the inventive octane-enhancing composition to mix into the fuel supply to raise the octane levels and improve combustion activity, and utilizing the fuel supply.
