- I know that this topic had floated around when there was some talk about
- emmissions and stuff, and someone said that there are 3 kinds of mothballs,
- but only one kind is the right kind to put in your tank.

- What does it do to the gas? Increase the octane rating? On a whim I bought
- a package of mothballs (each about .75" diam), and the active ingredient is
- Naphthalene (99.75%) and perfume (.25%). Are these the right kind?
