b<* SS& i\\\ — " « . •adF “Motor spirit is bought to burn—every particle of it. If it isn’t ail consumed you’re wasting money. I’m a hard-working Carburettor and you depend upon me to give you a good spin, but to feed me on motor spirit that I can’t digest —that won’t burn completely, instantly—is not a fair deal to me, to my friends the other gadgets, or to yourself, Mr. Motorist. “I appreciate a congenial spirit—but some motor spirits leave me cold. And how can my warm friend Maggie—however well she sparks— get a kick out of such chilly, lifeless vapour as I am forced to send up to the combustion chamber, to meet her family of spark-plugs. It’s no joke, Mr. Motorist. mm c UNION £Motor Spirit is non-detonating —it explodes like smokeless powder in a naval gun ... with a progressive and sustained explosion. It thrusts the piston down with a powerful but continuous impulse —not a sledge-hammer blow. This means more compression , more power , greater efficiency, and more miles to the gallon. “Picture the scene on a cold morning! The starter grinding away —scores of perfectly good 'amps’ going west the plugs giving a fine pyrotechnic display —and me, full to the gasket with lifeless motor spirit, spraying for dear life but only able to send up the manifold a wet spray of cold gas and a fair share of unvaporized benzine! It’s a hard life—when you don’t use Union Motor Spirit. “But the man next door uses nothing else but Union. I hear him on the chilliest morning and envy my brother Carburettor on his car. One touch on the starter, a couple of turns of the engine, and away she goes. I know’ what happens, for the Carburettor next door has often yarned with me. The Union Spirit has life in it—the Carburettor’s job is an easy one. However cold the air is, this lively spirit is turned into dry, fine gas—every particle of it—which fires at the first spark, and keeps firing. “It’s kindness to cars to use Union—for it makes the work of every part of the engine easy and effective, and no engine ever sounded a complaining knock when fed on Union. Fill up at the Union pump and prove it!” UNION flu rum - detonafiruf MOTOR- SPIRIT
