It’S these stubborn drops ©I WET GAS that often make you SHIFT TO SECOND! HALF* WAY up a busy hiU you have to shift to second. Horns honk impatiently. Drivers smile in sympathy or glare in irritation. Angrily you swing into the gutter to make way for those who can take the hill in high. , , T . Blame wet gas for this constant annoyance and embarrassment, it condenses into drops of raw motor spirit in the manifold, resists the spark and dilutes motor oil. It not only ruins performance, but may ruin the motor itself, What a difference when you put Texaco m your tank! This motor spirit forms a dry gas that others are trying to imitate! It vaporizes readily and burns completely, enabling your car to start like an arrow and climb like a mountain goat! Tests prove that Texaco is as pure as it is powerful. With it, engines seem immune t;o usual motor spirit troubles. It has become the favorite of motorists throughout the country! e Stop to-day at the Texaco Red Star with the Green T. Swap your wet gas troubles for dry gas power and pleasure. And remember—Texaco, the original dry gas, is obtainable only from the Texaco pump.
