Hie wise motorist bargainhimi 5Rw shxnddhave j A Ik\fLf. l/\k used Plume 1 / said ike chemist JBr f / YOU never see motor spirit. It goes into your tank through a hose. You take it on trust. You can't examine it. Only a chemist can analyse it. , The brand, and the Company back of the brand, are all you have to go on. If you buy a so-called "cheap" motor spirit you take a grave risk. You may save a few pence on the purchase price but it will cost you more in the end. You may court any of these troubles—acid and its attendant corrosive effects, impurities, poor mileage, crankcase dilution due to kerosene fractions contained in the petrols because they are "cheap." The heavy kerosene fractions do not vaporise but, working past the piston rings in a fluid form, dilute the oil in the crankcase. Then follow the impairing of the lubricating value of the oil and loss of power, a condition entailing costly replacements and repair bills. All for the sake of a few pence saved on fuel. Your car represents a big investment. It is worthy of your care. It requires dependable fuel. You protect your car investment to the utmost when you buy Plume. The reputation of the Vacuum Oil Company Pty. Ltd. is behind it. It is proud to assume responsibility for the mariner in which Plume will function in your car. Plume is a wonderful motor spirit, volatile, powerful, steady, free from acid and all harmful impurities. It is refined under exacting standards—every gallon is the same wherever you get it. You can always make sure of getting quality by filling at the Plume pump. * "Cheap motor spirit doesn't pay in the end. Don't abuse your Car with so-called "Cheap" Motor Spirit—it pays to use Plume.
