PROVED THE MOST POWERFUL gasoline you can buy. New Flying A Super
Extra is the only 100-octahe gasoline in the West. It's the motor fuel late model cars were designed to bum. What
ever the age of your car, it will take off faster, run smoother, and have more reserve passing power with new Flying
A. Remember, it takes high-octane gasoline to give a modem, high-compression engine full performance. And only
Flying A is 100-octane gasoline.
PROVED NEVER TO KNOCK ...even in the latest automobiles, because new Flying
A Super Extra is over. 100-octane. Octane rating measures a fuel's resistance to knock. No gasoline of less than
100-octane can completely protect today's high-compression engines against damaging knock or ping. New Flying
A Super Extra, with over 100-octane, can and does give you positive protection at all times, under all driving
conditions.
THE CLE A NEST-BURNING gasoline vou can buy. Most modern
gasolines do not bum clean. They foul up carburetors, valves, spark plugs and rings.. .cause costly repairs. ..and
rob you of new-car power too soon. Hoping to solve this problem, some refiners resort to "gimmick" additives.
But new Flying A Super Extra is super-refined impurities are taken out in the refining process so they never
reach your car. Without qualification new Flying A 100-octane is the cleanest-burning gasoline you can buy.

WHAT 100-OCTANE MEANS TO YOU:
Q. What is octane?
Octane rating is the accepted measurement of a gaso
line's knock-free power. The higher the octane, the
greater the power, performance and resistance to knock.
Q. What is knock?
Knock is the harsh, jarring noise you hear from the
vibration of metal in your engine caused by low-octane
gasoline that burns explosively, not smoothly. These
violent explosions are a danger signal to you. If your en
gine continues to knock, you can literally blow a hole in
a piston.
Q. Which cars need 100-octane
gasoline?
The later-model, higher-compression engines operate at
peak performance with 100-octane gasoline. Lesser fuels
simply aren't good enough to give full power and prevent
all knock or ping. If you have a 1954 or older car, you
will also be amazed to see what 100-octane will do for it!
Q. What's the difference in
power?
As mentioned, the higher the octane, the greater the
power... but at an accelerated rate. Laboratory and
road tests using various types of engines have firmly
established that 100-octane gives 11 to 43 greater
power performance than ordinary gasolines.
Q. Who sets the standards
for measuring octane?
The American Society of Testing Materials. These
standards are recognized and used by the entire petro
leum and automotive industries.
Q. What about mileage?
When gasoline burns smoothly there is a continuous
push against the piston. But when unburnt fuel explodes
with a "knock," the piston stroke is robbed of impetus
causing a major waste of gasoline. Because it burns
smoothly and completely, 100-octane assures by far the
greatest mileage under all performance conditions.
