Default Power Kero

Used to be a fuel sold here called Power Kero, for use in tractors. Overseas it was known as TVO or Tractor Vaporising Oil. Lots of people used it during the war in cars , a illegal practice because it had no road tax on it . You could smell cars running on it , but many got away with it.
