A MESSAGE OE VITAL INTEREST TO MOTORISTS , r ■ ’ • ' ' ' ' \'r.‘ .. appotenie- : ap'pd-ten" ik ) The quality in a motor spirit that ensures perfect Combustion! In previous announcements the reasons for adding this word “appotenie” to the motorist’s vocabulary have been outlined. Here, we discuss the question of Combustion. As a motor owner, the knowledge of how ideal combustion is attained will prove of vital interest to you. ij _JL-' * * appotenie [from \k \ /ll TTF Latin: ad (ap), meaning g* p TT ■ added to; and potens, H I Bi , meaning powerful] pos- w Ik sessing increased power; toid of a gas that, being gj X X“7/ I Stable to heat and high s compression will there_f ore ne ‘^ ler audibly nor II I 11 silently “knock” in a compression engine. | | J jSS3 ■imu iiiir-M irw—f fe»ESB?3ssiKnzijaEa RMTro MMIR HER 111 Ml W This diagram shoius This diagram shows correct combustion — incorrect combustion—ivith ‘Plume with motor spirit unstable the appotenie motor spirit to heat and high compression Plume, defying high temperatures, powerfully When you use a motor spirit that is unstable resisting the disrupting influences of high com- under heat and hi g h compression, a chemical .
