Message they are solvents and shouldn't be spilt on your paint, but neither should regular gasoline.

As well, normal gasoline already has some toluene in it. Its one of the ingredients that is added at most refineries to raise octane.

I don't take the potential health concerns lightly, but please tell me why you think adding Toluene or Xylene to gasoline is bad for O2 sensors or catalytic converters? Do you have some facts to back that up? This is NOT the same as using LEADED fuels.
