Did you see the bottle? to tell you the truth I could see where he might make the mistake. I read some of the posts, he picked it up off the shelf or on the end of the aisle. That stuff is expensive too so that might not set off any bells. As the one poster suggested in that thread if you put that bottle on the shelf next to the oil some schmuck most likely would pick it up and put it in his tank.

There all kinds of idiots running around. When I was working at Advance Auto I asked why four empty bottles of red "Color Wax" were returned as "Defective". Seems the guy was less than pleased with the results. He used all four bottles of RED wax and his car was still BLACK!!!

I think the color would be the first indication that this is NOT octane booster
I laugh at people who put octane booster in, or super at the gas station, expecting to gain horsepower! The fact is, if you don't need the octane (i.e. High compression) then you actually LOSE horsepower.
When we were young, my buddy did a dyno run on his bike & lost 4 rear-wheel HP by using 107 octane race fuel in a slightly modified machine.
