A LITTLE NOVO-KO MEANS A LOT MORE MILES! These days motor-miles cost money. Petrol is up in price and how far it will yet rise no one knows. Motorists wiU therefore be interested to learn how to make 25 miles to the gallon where at present they can only do 20. This may perhaps sound too good to be true but it is a present day actuality—thanks to Novo-ko. .Throughout New Zealand No-vo-ko is making big savings for hundreds of motorists- It is a highly concentrated synthetic benzine to be added to motor fuel in the; proportion of one ounce of Novo-ko to ,the gallon of fuel. This works out at a cost of 3d worth of Novo-ko. Among scores of exhaustive tests it is interesting to note the following, carried out, by Mr C. Savage, motor mechanic of Wanganui, with private cars: —Buick, owned by Mr J. Craig Wanganui, increased from 20% to miles with Novo-ko; Buick owned by Sir J- H. McLean, Marton, increased from 24J to 36.8 miles; Ford car owned by himself showed an improvement of 10 miles—from 2(5'/ 2 without Novo-ko, to 35J with it ; Studebaker owned by Mr W. Glasgow, Turakina, increased from 16 to 22.6 miles; and a Buick belonging to Mr G. Glen, of Makirikiri, increased its efficiency by 11J miles to the gallon, rising from 22J miles, without Novo-ko, to 34 miles with it. For farm motors Novo-ko is a big fuel gayer. It has been proved in a very thorough test by Mr. Masdh Bayly, of Bett and Bayly's motor Garage, Palmerston North, that a stationary engine coupled to a 25 to 40 dynamo ran 78 per cent longer when Novo-ko was added to, the spirit. So, all through New Zealand motorists and farmers are economising in petrol, benzine and other fuels—riot by cutting down miles or work, hut by adding No-vo-ko. This splendid • econbmiser is a pure liquid containing no particles to choke the feed pipe and we specially point out that it is ; non-injurious to metals. A bottle containing coins, cop-per-plate, wire, steel and iron parts in a mixture of Novo-ko and motor spirit, reveals not the slightest trace of corrosion with the contents after nearly one year. The Company absolutely guarantees that Novo-ko will not injuriously affect the engine. Try it—all garages sell it as follows:—s/- one pint tin, sufficient for 20 gallons; ITi/C half gallon, sufficient for 80 gallons; 32/6 one gallon, sufficient for 160 gallons.
