WYL El L wo Go venrnieiifs Specify For the Same Reasons That You, Tbow After exhaustive tests which they themselves have made, Ethyl Gas has been adopted by the U. S. Navy Air Force, the British Air Ministry, the U; S. Army and Navy Dirigible Service, racing car drivers, and millionsof motorists. Try it today in Unioiv Ethyl, the acknowledged super-fuel It '"PHE Ethyl formula was discov ered after 10 years' intensive-research. Oyer 35,000 different chemi cal combinations were tested, and discarded before the perfected pro duct was achieved. Such an article cannot be created over night. That is why, if you want the results that such a fuel produces, you, must get that fuel. , ; t Ethyl is a new discovery. It is unique. It stands alone.' It performs a scientific service based on scien tific facts and unusual phenomena discovered only after patient scientific work. Our own scientists have blended it with the superior Union non-detonating gasoline. The advantage is a quicker vaporizing, sure-fire, fuel. The result, Union-Ethyl, brings to Western motorists the most modem, most effective, lower cost, motor fuel, ever offered on the Coast. Now Carbon Helps With ordinary gasoline, carbon causes "knocking" and a loss of power. Union Ethyl completely eliminates this knock. With such gasoline carbon actually increases instead of lessens power. Highly carbonized motors actually run better with Union-Ethyl Gas than carbon free motors without it. ' Carbon in cylinders is, therefore, now an advantage rather than a fault. Now, with Union-Ethyl, you get also, a qu'icker. pickup and a smoother, practically vibrationless motor. "Union Non-Detonating Gasoline" With Highly Multiplied Effect Union Gasoline has always been (as adver tised for years) a "non-detonating" fuel. ' "Ethyl" alsojs.a "non-detonating" agent highly onccntrtecj ,jnd with a multiplied effect. So the two in combination "Union" and "Ethyl", Gas piakc the most remarkable im provement in motor fuel since motor cars were first invented. In its manufacture Union-Ethyl Gasoline is limited to a low end-point by distillation test, thus producing a fuel that instantly vaporizes completely in the carburetor and yields quicker starting and acceleration. No other so-called "knockless" compound can produce "Ethyl" results. Union-Ethyl Gasoline is colored red for iden- tification purposes only. The color adds noth ing to its quality .or performance. The fuel you buy, therefore, must be genuine Union-Ethyl if you want all that we offer here. Get it today and try it. Learn what Union Ethyl does. Hoiv to Prove Superiority Test No. 1 Derive up the steepest hill you know. Mark the place where you shift from high gear. Thenjdrain your tank and refill with Union Ethyl' Note how much farther you go-up the same hill, the absence of carbon knock' the elimination of bucking, and the reduced vibration. . Test No. 2 Throttle your car down to five miles per hour with ordinary gasoline. Note the "jumping" and the knocking caused by carbon in your motor. Drain your tank and refill with Union Ethyl. Feel the instant pickup, the absenceof any carbon knock and the smoother, peppy way your car responds to the accelerator. Test No. 3 Make a sharp right-hand turn at a very slow spee'd Say four miles per hour. Cramp the wheels. Push the accelerator to the floor. Watch the result. Then drain your tank and refill with Union-Ethyl. ' Repeat the test. Note the instant pickup as your motor takes hold without the usual knocks caused by carbon. Try Union-Ethyl Today There is nothing else like Union-Ethyl. It is the last scientific word in motor fuel develop ment. You owe it to yourself to make a test. Union-Ethyl is now sold at first-class Independ ent Dealers as well as Union's own service sta tions. Drive in where yoinsee the Union-Ethyl sign. Have the attendant drain your tank. Then refill with Union Ethyl. Don't let others, tell you its advantages. Find out.today, for yourself, why governments, racing car drivers, and motorists by the scores of thou sands are Using Ethyl exclusively. Works Best In These Motors If your motor falls into one of the following clarifications, start using Union-Ethyl today. Motors heavily carboned and motors which accumulate carbon quickly. Motors that knock loudly. .Motors burdened with excessive loads. -'Motors operating in hilly country and through heavy traffic. Motors which, through long usage, are losing power. Directions for Trial: Have your tank drained of the ordinary gasoline now in It. This is ci stnttal. for Ln.on-Ethvl Gasoline is scientifically prepared in exactly riKht proportions.
