Laquer Thinner
If you use laquer thinner, just be sure to read the label and get thinner with toluene...some brands use other stuff, and stuff that's not so good for your motor. Maybe a better way to do it is to buy pure Xylene (try a Sherwin Williams paint store, but at $26 for 5 gallons it isn't cheap). Toluene has an octane rating of 114, Xylene has a 117 octane rating. Also, Xylene is one of the ingredients commonly used in octane boosters and injector/carb cleaners.
