If you review the diesel place fuel lubricity testing, opti-lube came out amongst the best, and their summer blend amongst the cheapest.
But if you review the msds, you'll find that Napthalene and trimethylbenzene are key constituents. Ditto for the more expensive and higher performing Xpd version.
Naphthalene has an octane of around 90, but the volatility aspect would make it questionable to me for a gasoline additive.
But for a diesel add, it may be a clean and practical option.
Just thinking out loud. I may do some solubility testing when I have a chance. I have a box of 99.95% naphthalene moth balls...
