of gas in the tank when the reserve light comes on, then I recommended adding 5 more gallons on top. In the "Octane Olympics" article on my website, 30% was considered the maximum. The 2:5 ratio you mentioned is 40%, assuming that toluene mixes with gas in a linear fashion, which it does not, but close enough for our purposes. Running too much toluene is not inherently dangerous. Toluene is harder to ignite than gasoline and running higher concentrations will lead to poor cold starting and eventually rough running, but the engine will not "blow up" if the toluene percentage is too high. Can't comment about the soot, never noticed any more than my usual.
