Hundreds of thousands of motorists have discovered the amazing way that Rust-Proof gasoline protects their cars from fuel sys tem rust and corrosion. This proven protection saves you money. It means fewer repair bills . . . more miles per gallon . . . better performance from your car. Here's how rust and corrosion can cripple your car: Small amounts of water continually form in every car's gasoline tank. This happens when moisture from the air is condensed by daily temperature changes. This moisture rusts and corrodes the gasoline tank bot tom, fuel lines, fuel pump and carburetor. The result is loss of power, poor performance, frequent tune-ups, expensive replacement of damaged parts. Your car may fail wften you least expect it When you use Rust-Proof gasoline, moisture is made harmless. An amazing chemical compound-RD-11S, coats the inside of your car's fuel system with an invisible, water proof layer. Rust and corrosion can't get started!
