Default H2o2

Has someone experimented with hydrogenperoxide instead of water/meth?

I'm not sure Hydrogen Peroxide would be a good substitute for Meth. It's not a "fuel" but, is an oxidizer as far as I know.

The stuff you get at the drugstore is so dilute that I doubt that it would be of any benefit, but I am just like any other internet expert. I am pretty sure that what was left in your reservoir would only be water by the next day, anyway.

even the lowest (3%)solution contains 10 percent oxygen (air contains about 20)
The stuff serves as rocketbooster so i figure (not just me ) it could see use in IC engines.

It does decompose (as stated) in the presence of light. Hence the brown bottles. You'd just have water.

I don't see there being any advantage to a 3% solution. But hey, I haven't ever heard of anyone trying it.

We use the stronger stuff as the refinery in the bug plant as a disinfectant. You wouldn't want to get any of that on you.

That's what I'm getting at. Most people use Meth for it's cooling and as a supplement to their fuel system.

I THINK hydrogen peroxide would require you to supply more fuel in order to keep your AFR correct.

It is used in rocket fuels but, as an oxidizer, not the fuel afaik. I could be wrong as I didn't care for chemistry much.

Yeah, at 100%. Even the stuff that Coban uses in the refinery is dangerous, but at 100% if you spill some on your leather boot, it won't stop burning until it eventually reaches the ground.
I am not disputing that Walgreen's Hydrogen Peroxide solution will boost your horsepower, that would be pretty cool, but comparing it to what they use in rockets is like lighting a match and saying that it is the same as the sun.

Nitric Acid is a very strong oxidizer....what about that Rick?
