TTOW often we used to say:
II wonder whether that
= knock is carbon trouble
or notl"
Now we just put in a call for
FAM-O, the famous Investigator
and fearless sleuth. If it's car
bon trouble he soon finds out,
and the culprit is brought to
justice-and justice in the case
of carbon trouble means COM
plete determination.
Ifitisn' t carbon trouble FAM-O
will refuse to work on your
case-but 900 of all motor trou-
BILE is caused by accumulated
carbon, so the Old Sleuth usually
finds work to do.
You'll be surprised at
FAM-O's charge for his services
$1.0O for several days work!
Of course he knows that you'll
give him steady job keeping
carbon away or he'd be likely
to put in a bigger bill!
