Suddenly youll realize that "wet gasoline, full of heavy kerosene-like frac tions, is causing your starting troubles. Not enough can vaporize to catch from the spark in a cold motor 1 Some refiners add "wild" light frac tions to make "winter gasoline." That doesn't correct the trouble. Your motor will sputter and miss for blocks after it etarts. Such gasoline is still "wet" Worst of all is the oil dilution which "wet" gasolines cause. The gasoline that can't burn pours down cylinder walls, washing away the oil film, ruining the crank case oil Shell 400, the "dry" gas, has the heavy "Vet" parts removed in refining. All of it can vaporize Half choke is enough to make it start quickly on the coldest morning. It runs smoothly without any choice almost as soon as the motor starts. And because it burns cleanly, you avoid -oil thinning. Fill with Shell 400 the next time your tank is almost empty.
