You need more fuel to make up for extra oxygen being feed in the engine. The leaner you run the more power you'll make while increase cylinder pressure and tempature. However ethanol isnt like gasoline in relation to tempature which helps. Also the paint thinner or acetone will slow down the burn which helps avoid detonation. Cold plugs are important as well. If a failure occurred it would've been due to the lack of tinsel strength in the connecting rods rather than detonation IMO
