The result, Union-Ethyl, brings to Western motorists the most modern, 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 quicker 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" also is a "non-detonating" agent highly concentrated arid with i multiplied effect. So the two in combination" Union" and "Ethyl". Gas make the most remarkable im provement in motor fuel since motor can 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 vaporize completely in the carburetor and yields quicker starting and acceleration. - No other so-called "knocldcss" compound can produce "Ethyl" results.

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 absence of 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 (low speed 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. : . . i . 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 you see the Union-Ethyl sign. Have the attendant drain your tank.
