AroTane gires you the best performance that your car, new or old, can deliver. -Try a tankful of AROTANE, the Dual Octane Quality Gasoline, at your Friendly Associated Dealer's today. It is a well-known fact that not one, but several components arc required for balanced, all around performance in a gasoline. The right proportion of components is better than an excessive amount of any one. For example, components of higher volatility (vaporizing ability) than you need for instant starting arc not only useless, but wasteful. Octane, beyond the point of complete elimination. -of knock or ping in your car, serves no purpose whatsoever.
